Looping Through Controls With A Control Name?
Dec 18, 2009
I have 20 controls that I created on a form. the names are like btnRing1, btnRing2, btnRing3, etc.
So I have a do while loop , and I have my variables in place. One line of code is "btnRing1.Start = PlrName" So PlrName is a variable, pulling that info from a database. I don't want to list each btnRing1, 2, 3 in each block of code in my loop.
Is there a way to use the name btnRing + 1, or something like that so I don't have to list all 20 controls in my code.
I know I can dynamically build the controls, but I can only have 20, so I need to have a little control on the numbers. So I need to have the controls already built.

I have recently started to try to convert some of the applications I have written in VBA in excel into stand alone programs. I don't have any formal programming training and I am learning the hard way that VB is really not very close to VBA!! I am trying to change the properties of radio buttons in a groupbox when a certain event occurs. In VBA I used this code:

I've got a page with a ton of checkBoxes on it. I would like to have a loop that can can just go through all of them but I can't get it to work. I know similar code works for a desktop application but apparently not for an ASP page. [Code]

I have created a customised checkbox control (only the text and border appearance has been modified), and wanted to loop through them in a User quizto see which have been checked and are correct. I have used the Tag property (set to 1 or 0) to identify incorrect answers, and tried to loop through with the following code:For Each thing As GMAW.MyCheckBox In currentParent.ActiveMdiChild.Controls

I am trying to find a way to use the UseCompatibleTextRendering properties on each control on my form. However, it does not seem to be an option when i use the following code below:
For Each ocontrol As Control In Form1.Controls
ocontrol.UseCompatibleTextRendering = True
Next
ocontrol does not seem to have that option but has all other options for the button. If i do Buttion1.UseCompatibleTextRendering = True then it works just fine.

for x = 1 to 30
picturebox(x).image = value from database
label(x).caption = value from database

I did a quick net search and found this which works great for looping through all the buttons to disable them. These buttons are located right on the form.
For Each ctlControl In Form_BLAH.Controls
Select Case TypeName(ctlControl)
Case "Button"
ctlControl.Enabled = False
End Select
Next ctlControl
However...when I tried it on a form where the buttons are contained within a Table Layout Panel it does not work.

I have a dynamic webpage that loads a user control multiple times, including loading the user control within itself as many times as needed. Within the user control there are four controls: Title Label, Repeater, Placeholder and within Repeater a AjaxControlToolkit Rating control.
The structure can look like the following:
Webpage
Placeholder
UserControl (repeater hidden, no data)
Placeholder - [UserControl]
[code]....
how do I efficiently loop through this type of structure to find the rating controls?

I am converting a program I wrote in VB6 to Visual Studio 2010 VB.Net and have run into a problem. I am trying to cycle through 20 form elements on a form that all have the prefix 'chkCustomerItems' and then have a number 1 to 20 behind them. I am using this with a database lookup so that it there is a database entry it then applies the database item name to the checkbox's text field and turns visibility on. Here is the code I wrote:
ConnOpenClose()
Rs = New ADODB.Recordset
Sql = "SELECT * FROM CustomersItems;"
[Code]....
When it runs, I get a NullReferenceException error. This is basically the code that I used in VB6 (with some changes for .NET infrastructure).

But there is obviously an inheritance problem, since CommonDialog objects are not controls.
Is there a way for me to loop through really all the items displayed on my form?

I am familer with looping thru controls like so:
[Code]....
Next I have some labels on another form, that due to the design can't be in seperate panels. They are (lblChipColor1 - 6) and (lblChipValue1 - 7). I am trying to populate the color ones from the Array above. I can obviously loop thru the array, but I can't find a decent way to loop thru just the lblChipColorx lables ignoring the lblChipValue1x labels. It would be easy if they were on seperate panels. I tried adding the labels names to an array of type string and of type label, but got nowhere with that. Is there another way to group them, or build const array of label names, that I can work with?

How can I read the properties for a given contol type at runtime without having the masive overhead of specifing the each property for each type of control in code.
For example supose you are building an application where the end-user selects a contol type form a drop-down list in a combobox then the properties (Read, Write, Runtime, Designtime) for that control are displayed in a listbox.

I have a maximized form that has controls at the top of it and a large DataGridView that is docked below all the controls. Its kind of like the Ribbon in MS Office. The controls cover about 1/4 of the screen at the top. I would like a way for the user to click a button to hide all the controls then automatically expand into the place the controls were so the user can view more data in the DataGridView and visa versa. For example, in MS Office Excel you can hide the ribbon by clicking a tiny button that has "^" on it.
I'm not very familiar with all the controls in Visual Studio so I would like to hear some recommendations. Is this situation ideal for a SplitContainer or ToolStripContainer or am I way off base here?

I'd like to go through all the items of a ListView control in order to ... well execute some code. I suppose I have to use the "For i=1 to ..." statement , but I am not familiar at all with this control. As I said , I'd like to check all of the items (the elements in the first column) and for each of them that has "Yes" on the third column , I would like to run the rest of the code .

I am wondering if anyone has any idea how to make the controls stack and fill up the available space left by a control if the control is hidden or removed from the UltraGridBagLayoutPanel.
Example:
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 3]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
If I hide [Textbox 3] as of now, it will disperse the space left equally and pad the remaining text boxes with the space. However, I would like it to do this...
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
Where all the text boxes will move up and [Textbox 4] will completely consume the space left by [Textbox 3].

I am using Visual Studio 2008 and recently a weird bug has appeared.In my forms I have a tab control with multiple tab pages. I can place a control on a tab page fine, but when I move it by way of clicking it and dragging it to another location, it leaves behind an outline of where it should be. Looking around, it has moved to the first tab page

how to add controls in panel control runtime. I mean, I want to add group box at runtime. When I click on my button, it should add a group box in my panel and when I click again, it should move the first group box down and add the second. Every group box should have a label control in it.

I have a couple user controls that are loaded by a Select Case statement. However, in the behind code file for the main page that loads these controls, none of the asp controls show up in intellisense. I had a feeling it's because the controls are loaded conditionally. My question is what is the best way to solve this?
1) Load the controls and do a Select Case in the behind code to make them hidden or not.
2) Is there a way to say (psuedocode): LoadUserControl("UserControl1").Controls("tbTest").Text = ""
3) How can I pass a dataset to the User Control file?
4) Any other ideas?[code]

Is it possible to have a custom control (inherits from Control) and add sub-controls to it (like, a label for example)? Basically I want a composite control. I know controls can contain other controls, but if I try to add a control to MyBase.Controls, this doesn't work because that's readonly.
