[RESOLVED] Variable Name in a variable way

[cyberbhai]

I want to define variables in a loop. Something as below.

Dim ctr as integer
for ctr=1 to 10
dim MyVar<value of ctr>
' which will be like MyVar1...MyVar10
next

Can this be done ?

No. When you use Dim to declare a variable, that variable ceases to exist once the current block, in your case the current iteration of the For loop, completes. Try using an array or a collection. That's what they're for:

Dim ctr As Integer = 10
Dim myVars(ctr - 1) As Object

Thanx a lot.
