Want memory textbox

[mastur]

I am working on a map editor and want to load the map into several text boxes so its layers can be parsed. I don't want to use real textboxes because they are used in a class and I want to be able to use many instances of the class with ease.

I have tried "Dim txtMap as TextBox" but that did not work. So I tried "Dim txtMap as New TextBox", but aparently that doesn't work. Can anyone help?

is TextBox not TypeOf Control ?

Let me get this straight - you want info to be stored in a textbox, but you don't want it to be a textbox?

Try this

Private sub nottextboxes()
Dim Fred, Bob, Tom, Dick, Harry As Variant
'Store what the hell you like in there now
End Sub
