How to Save the control position in to structure at runtime

hi
I have picture box .inside the picturebox i have so many controls is there.
I want to store the all properties values in to structure at runtime.
because i am using structure for undo redo opertion.

You mean something like:

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
    Private Type properties
        left As Single
        top As Single
        width As Single
        height As Single
        '...
    End Type
 
    Dim Label1_properties As properties
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    With Label1_properties
        .left = Label1.left
        .top = Label1.top
        .width = Label1.width
        .height = Label1.height
        '...
    End With
End Sub

? You could declare a new type as an array and store each control's properties with a loop through controls.

iterate through Form.Controls... check that .Container.Name for each control in form.controls is picturebox name... you can then create code to retreive relevant properties/values for each control type.

gavio, agpasam and leinad31 - you are all very kind!

Thankyou for your replies. This method of saving control positions has helped me:

i) Drag controls at runtime, on a picture box.
ii) Save the control positions to a database.
iii) Re-call the positions from the database, to show the controls again on the screen.

Thanks again - and i hope to make a mini tutorial on this, to share with the world.
