control array index property

I have an assignment that has a control array of command buttons representing the seating plan of an aeroplane. How do I reference the index property of the control array from another form that is displayed once the command button is pressed?
I need this index property so I can calculate the position of the command button to store information in a corresponding 2D array. The control array is 4 cols by 8 rows. I know I have to use row=IndexNumber \ 4+1 and col=IndexNumber MOD 4+1. Any help appreciated. Sandra

If I understand correctly, you are just needing to be able to pass the index of the button that was pressed to another form... This being the case, you should setup a public variable in a module and pass the index value that way. Here's how I'd do it (You'll need a Module and 2 forms. Form1 should have a command button control array called "cmdBtn". While Form2 should have a textbox called "Text1")

Module:

Code:

---

Public iIndex As Integer

---

Form1:

Code:

---

Private Sub cmdBtn_Click(Index As Integer)
iIndex = Index
Form2.Show
End Sub

---

Form2:

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()
Text1.Text = iIndex
End Sub
