filling multiple button values

[met0555]

Hi,


Currently i have my buttons labelled and positioned as follow :

x0_y3 | x1_y3 | x2_y3 | x3_y3
x0_y2 | x1_y2 | x2_y2 | x3_y2
x0_y1 | x1_y1 | x2_y1 | x3_y1
x0_y0 | x1_y0 | x2_y0 | x3_y0

What I'm trying to do is fill the buttons name programatically. So far I will get X and Y values and i need to change the text of that button at that position.
I know it's possible to do x0_y3.text = xxxx for each position but this will take years, i'm looking for a solution using a loop or some other technique to easily replace the text values. and the buttons are under an updatepanel.


ex :
GIVEN : xx=2 yy=2

ex. WHERE IT IS "x" & xx and "y" & yy
REPLACE TEXT WITH "hello"

I tried something like this, but it doesn't work with the updatepanel for some reason, but it works fine if i use a simple panel

 For Each c As Button In UpdatePanel1.Controls.OfType(Of Button)()
                MsgBox(c.ID)
                c.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Yellow
            Next

Pease let me know if you have any quesitons

Thank You

I don't see any asp.net related problem.
Ask to move this to the regular vb.net thread.

well, i'm doing this on ASP.NET, and some of the solution used on the windows based VB.NEt not always work on ASP.NEt
