[RESOLVED] Array of textboxes

[Th3_wabbit]

Hi,
I'm not very expirienced with VB, but most of my dificulties i can resolve with google.This one not. Not sure if it can
I have a form in which an array of textboxes is placed by code.
How can i make an event to start when a change is made in ANY of the textboxes?
I'm using VB6

something like:

'get n from user
for m=1 to n
'place Txt_array(n)
next

Private Sub Txt_array(any)_change()
'do something
End Sub

thank you in advance

You get a changed event, with the index of the changed textbox

can you please be a little more specific?

I have created one form with an array of text box controls. It means for each text box the name is same. In my example it is txtName. Index property of each control is set to 0,1,2, and 3 (since I have only 4 such controls).

Following event will be fired whenever there is a change in any of the text box. You can know the index of textbox by Index parameter.

Private Sub txtName_Change(Index As Integer)

MsgBox "Text in " & Index & " is changed"

End Sub

Is it ok?

All the best

It doesnt't work.
Let me be more specific:

Dim txt_array() as textbox

'get n= number of textboxes
redim txt_array (1 to n)
for 1 to n
Set Txt_array(n) = Frm_form.Controls.Add("VB.TextBox", "Txt" & n, Frm_Calcul_Retea)
next n

now i need the event triggered on the change of any of the textboxes....

thank you

I don't have vb6 here so I am doing this from memory... Please amend syntax error if any...

Private Sub Txt_array_Change(Index As Integer)
    Select Case Index
    '~~> change was made in Txt_array(0)
    Index = 0
    
    '~~> change was made in Txt_array(1)
    Index = 1
    
    '~~> change was made in Txt_array(2)
    Index = 2
       
    '~> And so on
    End Select
End Sub

on Private Sub Txt_array_Change(Index As Integer)

i get an "ambigous name detected:Txt_array_Change" compile error

[Siddharth Rout]

that's probably because

Private Sub Txt_array_Change(Index As Integer)

exists somewhere in your code... you must have copy and pasted the code from here into your code window...

finnaly figured out
What I had wasn't an array of textboxes, was an array of variables of type textbox , whitch don't have an 'index' proprety (is empty).
Ok...now it's time to learn to use them
Thank you very much for your help.
