[RESOLVED] Help referencing a control as a string to get around no control arrays

[Mythos44]

Hello,

I am trying to get around the lack of control arrays. I have 4 list boxes that I am trying to reference and add items to. VB6 had a cool controls function like the following.

Controls("List" & 1).AddItem ("Test")

I can't for the life of me figure this out in VB 2005.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Control arrays exist in .Net, you just dont create them in the same way as in VB6. Try a search.

Control arrays are just set a different way.

Private LB() As ListBox

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        LB = New ListBox() {Me.ListBox1, Me.ListBox2, Me.ListBox3, Me.ListBox4}
    End Sub


For i As Integer = 0 To LB.Length - 1
            LB(i).Items.Add(i.ToString)
        Next
