Check is something exists

[ahpro]

I have items in a control array which are made when the program is running. Is there a way for me to check if a certain one exists?

while creating controls dynamically you know what you create Right! then why do you want to check again what controls available.

I mean, you know what you are doing? So, I think there is no need to check once again.

the code needs to go:

if [item] exists then
 
'things
 
end if

Dim ctl As Control
 
For Each ctl In Controls
    If ctl.Name = <the name of the control array> Then
        If ctl.Index = 4 Then ' or whichever one you are looking for
            MsgBox "it exists"
        End If
    End If
Next

or, to save looping through unnecessary controls:

Dim ctl As Control
 
For Each ctl In ctlArray
    If ctl.Index = 4 Then ' or whichever one you are looking for
        MsgBox "it exists"
        Exit For
    End If
Next ctl
