In VB6 you could make arrays of controls, and so, easily use arrays of variables with just the Index argument.
I know it's possible to make different events handle the same sub, and use the Sender object to know which control made the event to fire, but that's not as handy.
Search for Control Arrays in this .NET forum and you should get several threads regarding this, as it has been answered multiple times before...
You can make arrays of controls in VB.NET, too, though they are not necessarily quite the same as VB6. A control is an object, an array can be set up with any type of object, so an array of controls is entirely possible. However, this may be one of those situations where VB6 made things more streamlines than VB.NET. There are plenty of cases like that, but it always arose from VB6 sacrificing versatility for simplicity. That's not always a bad trade-off, unless you need that versatility, but versatility can sometimes mean that you need to do a bit more work.
You are right, and indeed it's what I'm used to do, but I guess writing a sunday soon after going out a saturday's night doesn't help much heh. I apologize.Quote:

Thanks for the help.
