How to refer to a control created by CreateReportControl?

[inglesp]

Does anybody know if it's possible to specify the name of a control created by CreateReportCon trol?

I have

txtNew = CreateReportControl(...)

and I can refer to the control as txtNew immediately after it's been created, but this is no use if I want to create several controls in one go and then refer to them later. I've tried

txtNew.name = "newname"

but then if I try to set

newname.Value = 5

I get error "Object Required" - it doesn't seem to think that newname refers to the text box.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Cheers,
Peter.

The CreateReportCon trol() function returns a Control object. It's not valid to assign this object to a String variable. This must be stored in an Object (Control) variable. This Control object has a property called .Name which will return the name of any created control for future use. Clearly using the following code will also allow future references.

Dim ctlThis As Control

Set ctlThis = CreateReportControl(...)
...
Call MsgBox(ctlThis.Name)
...
