Looping through controls & forms

When i loop through all the controls on a form using a for each loop, is the order consistant, providing the number of controls are constant?

Also, how would i loop through all forms in a program (may or may not be MDIChild/MDI forms?

It goes without saying that i'm thankfull for any replies, but to reitterate, i'm thankfull for any replies :)

To loop through all the forms:

VB Code:

For Each frm in Forms
'Do whatever you want with this form (frm)
Next

SLH, my guess is that the order is consistant, I tried find something in the MSDN regarding the subject, but was not able to :(

why do u need to know ?

I've made a custom tooltip, where it fades in. The speed at which it fades in, depends on how much the user needs the info (from the tooltip). I need to beable to store the speed for each control that has a tooltip.

give this a try I don't know if it will work with MDI or not you will have to give it a try

VB Code:

Public Sub SetFormColors()
    On Error GoTo error
    Dim Frm As Form
    Dim Ctl As Control
    
    For Each Frm In Forms
        Frm.BackColor = vbRed
        For Each Ctl In Frm.Controls
            Ctl.BackColor = vbRed
        Next Ctl
        Frm.Show
    Next Frm
    
    Exit Sub
error:
    Err.Clear
    Resume Next
End Sub

Thanks all
