I have the following code inside my MDI parent form:For Each crl As Control In me.Controlscrl.?????Next
The code mainly used for getting some info from all child forms.I can get all the general property like size, location by crl.size or crl.location. But if all the forms have an own variable like myTxt. How could I get this own variable by this For Each method?

What type can i assign a for loop control variable? I want the for loop to be the output file of a calculation, but i can not define it as anything, and i do not know how to write it so that the output is actually what the code spits out once the code has finished running.

Is it possible to use a variable as part of a control name kinda like you would use a variable in a SQL statement. For example:
Lets say we have 4 text boxes txtP1Val, txtP2Val, txtP3Val and txtP4Val. Is it possible to have the P1 - 4 as a variable so it would be "txt + Some string variable + Val"

I'm working on a function that handles events from a number of buttons and trying to define a Select...Case based on the clicked button. Something like this...
Private Sub btnClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles btnThis.Click, _
btnThat.Click, _
[Code]....
which don't work either. Is there any way I can define a Select...Case in this manner or is it always destined to fail due to the attempt at comparison of reference types?
i have few cotrols on form (text box, combo box, checkbox etc). Thru some condition i stored the name of the control in a variable.
for example
dim cntrlname as string
if x=1 then
cntrlname = 'txtCode'

at some other place on form i want to use above variable to give the focus to control.
Basically, I have a large number of text boxes. Within these text boxes, I'll be doing calculations based on user input and other things. These boxes will be grouped by numbers, eg Cost1, Profit1, Stock1... Cost26, Profit26, Stock26. Without too much explanation, I went to write a FOR loop to perform a repetitive calculation across multiple groups, and the following line came up.
FOR num = 1 TO 26
Cost(num).text = ItemCost
What I've tried to do is use a variable to decide which 'Cost' textbox, from the available 26, to use in the calculation. For whatever reason, it won't work. I would like to be able to use a variable to specify exactly which textboxes I want used, so that on the 3rd pass of the loop, the 3rd box is used, and on the 19th pass, the 19th box is used. Otherwise, I'd just have to do each calculation separately, and write the same thing 26 times, with slightly different numbers.
The basic question is can I assign a variable to represent a control? As an example which of 12 tickBoxes have been ticked. Is this possible with a for next loop?
View 5 RepliesI have many textboxes that I need to reference dymanically. The controls themselves aren't dynamic, just the way I need to reference them.I've got several text boxes say:
txtMe1
txtMe2
txtMe3
...
txtMe100
I will need to randomly change one of the properties of the edit boxes. So lets say it picks a random number between 1-100 which is 56. So, I would want to change the background of my 56th edit box to:
txtMe56.Backcolour = Color.Gray
The only way I could think of doing this would be to have one giant select case statement to evaluate the random number. But, that is really dirty and not the best peformance wise (this could potentially get called hundreds of times) so was wondering what my options are?I tried to concatenate the random number to my generic control name 'txtMe' but it throws a wobbler. I essentially would want the following to worK:
dim iNum as integer = 56
txtMe & iNum & .Backcolour = Color.Gray

View 5 RepliesI have a number of tabpages that each contain a datagridview control only. Based on the results of a SQL statement I then loop through each tabpage and set its name. The reason for this is that at runtime (and depending on the results of the SQL statement), the contents of each tab page will change - henceI loop through the tabpages and set the name/ text (to reflect what will later be shown in the DataGridView)
The datagridview control on each tab has the default name e.g. DataGridView1, DataGridView2, DataGridView3 so it's easy for me to loop through them e.g.:
for i as integer = 1 to 3

I've found various C# examples here, but I can't seem to get a VB version working.I want to be able to pass a simple variable into a User Control to determine whether it shows a certain section of data.It's basically a Customer Data form, and in some circumstances I need to show a line with the customers account number and sort code, and in some I don't, so my user control:
<controls:customerForm ID='customerForm' showBankDetails="no" runat='server' />
But I can't work out what to do with the showBankDetails variable in Code Behind to stop it from rendering that section, or simply hide it with a CSS snippet.How do I access that variable in the code behind using VB.NET?

I want to access a page variable from a user control placed on that page. All the solutions work in C# via casting to the page class. The problem is that this doesn't work in VB. The page class is not selectable from the Intellisense dialog. Manual typing results in the error type not defined. It is strange that C# can do this without a problem. What is the proper solution for this in VB? I had other cases where I needed to access a control on the main page. C# again uses a cast to the page class to access the control. This doesn't work in VB again. So how can I access the page class from a user control in generell?

The variables in the brackets [example] do not actually have brackets in them in the original code. These are where the issues are. For both variables, it says, "The type for variable [variable] will not be inferred because it is bound to a field in an enclosing scope. Either change the name of [variable], or use the fully qualified name (for example, 'Me.[variable]' or 'MyBase.[variable]')." Now, I'm not entirely sure if this is a stupid question or not, as I'm used to VB '98 because that's what we use in my programming class at High School. let me know why this won't work.
-Note: The intention of this program is to continually loop the generation of numbers for this list until I tell it to stop. Button1 ends the program, Button2 generates the list one time only, Button3 is supposed to loop the generation of the list, and Button4 is supposed to end the loop, but not the program.
Say that i have the following code that parse about 20k records from the DB.
Code #1
vb.net While reader.Read()
list.Add(If(Integer.TryParse(reader(0).ToString, 0), Integer.Parse(reader(0).ToString), 0))
End While
And then another code which does the very same thing but it seems to be a little cleaner.
Code #2
vb.net While reader.Read()
Dim storeowner As Integer = 0
Integer.TryParse(reader(0).ToString, storeowner)
list.Add(storeowner)
End While
This is what i am confused about; does the compiler creates a new variable automatically when i use the if statement without strictly declared variable? What approach is better in sense of performance?
I am looking for a good resource on variable naming conventions to illustrate variable type and where variables are declared. So I will have public variables, Private variables, private or local variables. I also may want to declare variables with the same name in different class code (i.e. in the code behind different forms). I am assuming good coding would dicatate a prefix for declaration location.
