[RESOLVED] [2005] Is there a way to Stack methods on a Control.

[smilbuta]

Hello community...

Here is my question..

for example..this is my current code..

cboMiscCombobox.enabled = true
cboMiscCombobox.visible= ture

is there a way to stack the methods on one line??

cboMiscComboBox.enabled and visible = true

I know the code above is incorrect but it reflects what im trying to accomplish if possible.

There isn't a way that is simple enough that it would be useful. If you HAVE to do it, you could make a custom control that inherits the control you want, and add methods that do both things, but I would say that you'd be crazy to do that unless you REALLY needed to get rid of that one extra line (though I assume your actual situation is much more complex than the example you posted).

If you don't feel like typing in the control name every time, using "With" key word would help

With cboMiscCombobox
    .Enabled = True
    .Visible = True
    .SelectedIndex = 0
    .Someproperty = " bla bla bla..."
End With

AHA!.. thats what i was looking for. I did not know the syntax on how to do that. Yes my project is a bit more complicated but the lower example will do what i want nicely.

no more..

control.yada yada...
control.yada yada...
control.yada yada...
control.yada yada...
control.yada yada... ARGHH!...

Thanx fellas!

With intellisense, I never have to type more than a character or two anyways, so I have all but forgotten the With bit. Love that feature.
