VS 2010 Creating And Removing Controls?
Sep 2, 2010
I'm making quite the complex program, and while I try to figure out some more advanced methods that work better for what I'm trying to do, I'd like to learn how to do this (which is a bit of a roundabout method to what I've been trying). I'm wondering, how can I programatically create and remove objects? For example, I have webbrowser1. I want to remove it and create another webbrowser that I will also name webbrowser1. (therefore, the instance of the original must be removed)

I'm using this code to remove controls from a panel.vb.net For Each c As Control In Me.pnlDevices.Controls Me.pnlDevices.Controls.Remove(c)Next
but somehow it doesn't remove all the controls at once, I have to run the code 3 times to remove them all(there is about 20 to 30 of them, mainly labels I don't know if it matters, but the controls where added dynamically at startup...

What's wrong with the following code? I'm trying to remove some radio buttons that were created dynamically but the controls' names are not being picked up by this code (only the name of the type of control).

I have a problem with a bit of code that is supposed to delete every controls on a form appart from the 2 first controls
vb2010
Private Sub ClearCheck(ByRef Container As Control)
Dim ctl As Control
Dim Boxtype As Control
Dim i As UShort = 0
[Code]...
The behavior is strange, I can't find any logic to it, it will sometime delete a part of the objects, other times it will delete other part of the objects. If I run it more than once, I can achieve the wanted result and remove all controls except the 2 I want to keep. It's as if it was checking 1 out of 2 controls.
To give you a better idea I have a combobox on the form and depending on choice it adds appropriate controls (not show/visible true) and add a second combobox to refine the search. If I change the value in the first combobox I want to remove the added controls from the previous combobox.SelectedIndexChanged as well as any control created by the following combobox from the form.
If need be I'll post the code that creates those new controls, but it's quite long so I didn't include it in this post

I have added controls to the form using a control array.. However, when I re-run it they stay and more appear. How do I get rid of the first set?

I got this whole thing pretty well down (it's actually quite easy), but I've seen custom controls created where you can click that little arrow on the top-right corner and add things or change things about it.
How exactly is this done? I'd Google it (which is why you don't see me post here too often) but I really don't know how to describe it.

How can all Child controls be removed at ones, instead of removing them one by one with this code below?
FrontPictureBox.Controls.Remove(Titel_Label)

im building an application using vb 2010 in which around 2000 labels are loaded on runtime. these labels are loaded and unloaded periodically.the unloading process of 2000 labels is very slow.guide to remove/unload 2000 lables faster.here is my code to unload labels.
For i As Integer = thisControl.Controls.Count - 1 To 0 Step -1
Dim LabelWhichShouldBeRemoved As Label = TryCast(thisControl.Controls(i), Label)

I'm having problems removing dynamic controls.
Here is what I'm using:
CODE:
The first sub is for adding the (custom)control, the second sub is for removing the control.
The custom control is a picturebox with a checkbox in the upper-left hand corner, no big deal.
The problem is that when I click the delete command, it only deletes one ckPicture at a time, and allways the last one in the list. I'm also assuming it's doing the same thing in the list(of images). What should I do differently so that it will remove all controls that are checked?
I forgot to add the variables in my namespace.
CODE:

This is my first post here as I am in the process of writing my first vb program. I just recently learned VBA and prior to that I had no programming experience. I decided that my first attempt with VB would be to convert a program that I previously wrote in VBA. It runs in an excel workbook but it doesn't actually use any excel functions so I figured it would be acceptable to convert. I am having an issue with removing controls on a userform. A commandbutton adds a line of about 6 controls. The user can add as many lines as they need to input their data. One of the 6 controls is a delete button that deletes the line of controls next to it. I have created a collection named Cashflows that holds each line of controls and each line of controls is named with a number that indexes the name to the line that it appears on in the form. In VBA I use that number to delete the actual controls from the userform and reposition and rename the remaining lines of controls.
Private Sub Delete_Click()
Commandbutton3sub(CInt(Right(Delete.Name, Len(Delete.Name) - 6)))
End Sub

I have a lot of buttons on a form (144) that need to be removed. All their names begin with "R". So I used this piece of code.
Sub RemoveBookingButtons()
Dim cntrl As Control
[CODE]........................
However whenever I run this sub function, it deletes every other button starting with "R". better code or point out if the flaw is in that piece of code or it is hidden somewhere else in my program?

I have a VB.Net WinForm Program. I dynamically create panels with controls.Each panel has:
2 Labels
1 DataGridView
1 Button
Everything works fine the first time I create the panels.
Everything gets created, and everything is functional.
If I have to re-create the form, I get rid of the existing panels (and their controls) with this code:
[Code]...
When I re-create the panels, I get the panels and all of their controls except Buttons.When I step through the debugger, I see the buttons being removed, and I see them being created, but they don't appear in the panel

It seems that when I'm online the following code I see is used interchangeably:
Dim x As Button
Dim y As New Button()
or even
Dim z As New System.Windows.Forms.Button()
Does it matter how I declare the variable?

I need to be able to refer to a set of controls on a Windows form using an array, but I'm having a few difficulties.
The Windows form (WForm.vb) contains two textboxes (TextBox1 and TextBox2).
In Module1.vb I have created an array reference to the textboxes thus:
Public wf As New WForm
Public ReadOnly TB() As Control = {wf.TextBox1, wf.TextBox2}
Then, in WForm.vb I have tried to refer to the textboxes via the array:
eg.
TB(0).Text = "Change text to this"
I know that the array is referring to the textboxes, because when I hover the cursor over the line 'TB(0).Text = "Change text to this" ' in debug mode, I get the following:
(0)|{Text = "Change text to this"}
(1)|{Text = ""}
but for some reason, the text in TextBox1 on the form isn't actually being changed!
(There is obviously no problem with change the textbox's text at this point in the code, because I've tried substituting the array reference 'TB(0)' with a direct reference to the textbox 'TextBox1', and the problem disappears.

Let's say I wanted to create 3 panels(Panel1, Panel2, Panel3) at runtime, and create a label(Panel1Label, Panel2Label, Panel3Label) inside each panel. This far I know how to do it.
The problem arises in that I don't know how to write a Sub for the event of clicking one of these run-time created Panels or Labels. When I try with
Code:
Private Sub Panel3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Panel3.Click
...it tells me "Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of it's base types"
Also, if someone could teach me how to use some kind of array to create these controls at run-time, I'd love it, considering I may need to create up to 50 of them at some point.

Trying to multiply the boxes it creates by 2, it doesn't work. How do I utilize multiplication to create multiples of my new textbox control? (the error I get, just in case it is needed is "Operator '*' is not defined for types 'System.windows.forms.textbox' and 'integer')

I am having some problems adding controls at runtime, or I guess I should say accessing the controls after adding them.The application starts off with a tab control named "tabIncidents" and one tab for an incident information. The user can click on a button to add a client. When the button is pressed a second tab is added to "tabIncidents" named "Clients." On the newly created "Clients" tab another tabcontrol is added named "tabClients" and we create a tab named "Client". Multiple "Client" tabs can be created on this tabcontrol. Each "Client" tab gets a usercontrol added named "clientInformation" which has name and address textboxes.
So basically it is ...
TabIncidents.tabFirstTab (already exists)
TabIncidents.Clients (new tab added at runtime if user clicks a button)
TabIncidents.Clients.tabClients (new tabcontrol on the new tab)
[code]....

I'm creating 50 picbox in code. they are named Area1_1 to Area 1_50.
They all have different XY position and different size, setup in % of the form width.
Like this:
Code:
Dim Area1_1 As New PictureBox
' Dim 48 other box...
Dim Area1_50 As New PictureBox
[Code]....
But it don't work. Probably because the controls is not added to the form yet...

I am writing an application that requires button controls to be created at run time because the amoutn of controls created depends on data retrieved from a database.
I believe I am creating the control properly but I am not capturing the click event.
Code example:

myButton = New Button
myButton.id = "id"
