    Write a value to a textbox depending on variable

    Hello,

    I have a WPF form and created a stackpanel with 5 textboxes. (TXT1, TXT2, TXT3 ....)
    I want to fill these textboxes with a name out of a Global var named "NamePerson" and the textbox depending of the value of i.

    Private Sub Button_Click(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
    Stackpanel1.Children.Item(i).SetValue(NamePerson)
    End Sub

    Can anyone tell me how i can fix this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Erika

    You have to cast Stackpanel1.Children.Item(i) to TextBox and then you can access it's Text property.

Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

    Something like this:-
    Code:
    Private Sub Button_Click(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
        DirectCast(Stackpanel1.Children(i), TextBox).Text = NamePerson
    End Sub
