I don't know how to call it

[QWERTY]

Ok here is the problem. I have a label on my form and I want to create a new one with exactly the same properties with code. I know that it is simple but I have very hard time doing it. Thanks for any help.
Regards QWERTY

uh,

Sounds WAY to easy.
Just Make an Array of the control object that you want and that should have the same code.
Whats wrong with that idea??

here's how:

Static NewIdx as integer

Sub LoadLabel

NewIdx = NewIdx + 1
Load Label1(NewIdx)

end sub

make sure the first Label1's Index property is set to 0 at design time.
so when u create a new Label1, it increases NewIdx, and loads a new label with the same properties.

Controls created via the Load command are invisible when created, so you'll need to set their Visible property to true. You'll also need to move them some place since they will be drawn on top of the original control.

In case anyone cares, you can add a control at run time without a control array:

    Dim ctl As Label
    
    Set ctl = Form1.Controls.Add("VB.Label", "lblNewLabel", Form1)
    
    With ctl
        .Visible = True
        .Top = 200
        .Left = 10
        .Caption = "Hello World!"
    End With
