Programatically reset Formview values

[stephena]

Does anyone know how to programically clear the data from a form view using vb.net. I have so far come up with the following:

                Dim x
                For x = 0 To Me.Controls.Count - 1

                    'if it is a text box then clear it 
                    If TypeOf FormView7.Controls.Item(x) Is TextBox Then
                        Dim text As TextBox = FormView7.Controls.Item(x)
                        text.Text = ""
                    End If

                Next

But i get the error "Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.
Parameter name: index"

try

If TypeOf FormView7.Controls.Item(x) Is TextBox Then

dim mm as textbox = directcast (formview7.control.item(x), textbox)
mm.text = ""

                    End If

this should help !!!

Same error but specifically pointing to "If TypeOf FormView7.Controls.Item(x) Is TextBox Then"

try this

   Dim ctrl As Control

        For Each ctrl In formview7.Controls

            If TypeOf ctrl Is textbox Then
                Dim txt1 As textbox
                txt1 = DirectCast(ctrl, textbox)
              
                txt1.text = ""

            End If

just use the above routine i sent....

remove ur for loop... and use this one instead

Still not working, i would rather hoping there would be a formview7.reset or something similar heres the code i have at present with thanks to your asssistance:

                Dim ctrl As Control

                For Each ctrl In FormView7.Controls

                    If TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox Then
                        Dim txt1 As TextBox
                        txt1 = DirectCast(ctrl, TextBox)
                        txt1.Text = ""
                    End If

                Next
