VB-like Control array in C++ ??

[Guv]

I have a VB application which adds Text Boxes to (or removes them from) a Form at run time, depending on how many I need at a particular time.

Can this be done in C++ ?

It ceratinly can. You can create, delete and modify any window in your program at any time, and a control is just a specific kind of window.

If you're interested in doing it with MFC rather than the WIndows API way, I couldn't tell you for sure, but I am pretty certain it won't be difficult.

something like this...

int numBoxes = 5; //or any other number
HWND box[numBoxes];
for(int i=1; i<=numBoxes; i++)  {
     CreateWindow(....);
} 

and you can just make another variable to make sure the text boxes (edit boxes) don't overlap each other

except that
HWND box[numBoxes]; will create an error...
