expression is not a method

hi guys, im migrating from vb6 to vb.net and have only very basic knowledge of .net. now i upgraded one of my projects, in which i had function cleartexts() which would clear all the text boxes of the forms. now to upgrade it to .net i converted it to sub (as it didnt return anything), so it looked like,

Code:

---

public sub cleartexts()
for i = 1 to 24
text(i).text=""
next
end sub

---

but .net 2005 gives the error, "expression is not a method", how do i call it then?? or what modifications do i need to make?
thanks.....

Your VB6 app apparently uses a control array and they are not supported in VB.NET. You will have to create your own array of TextBoxes in code and/or restructure your code. If you want to read about VB6 control arrays and VB.NET then just search the web because there's a ton of literature dedicated to the topic. Guess what - there's even a link at the top of this page in the VB Wire News section.
