Is it possible to Ctype a control to its actual type without knowing in advace at run time ..

For Example

dim objcontrol as Object

ObjControl = new Label

Ctype(ObjControl, Label).text ="blah" ' its fine ..

but is it possible to do this ..

Ctype(ObjControl, typeof(ObjControl)).text ... something like this since in the above example I had to know in advance that I was Ctyping a label while in the latter example I do not care what control it is just Ctype it to whatever type it has, that way following code would be possible to achieve.

dim objcontrol as Object

ObjControl = new Label

Ctype(ObjControl, Typeof(ObjControl)).text ="blah" ' its fine ..

ObjControl = new TextBox

Ctype(ObjControl, Typeof(ObjControl)).text ="blah" ' its fine ..

without actually knowing the type of the control ....

I did, once. When I was sailing 'round the Arctic Circle...

Armchair Critics and Psuedo-scientists have proven that the Arctic circle does not exist. This means that you do not have a boat.

I saw a cat who played "pass the yarn" once.

I saw a cat who played "pass the yarn", twice !!!

[mendhak]

I saw yarn that played "pass the cat" while blindfolded. I was blindfolded, that is.

I see, said the blind man...

In these circumstances it would be difficult for you to tell if the cat was blindfolded or not.
