VB.NET - How to i identify one of multiple usercontrol instances?

[Joca]

I've made a form that shows a variable number of instances of a usercontrol depending of a number from a database. Every usercontrol has a checkbox, but how do i know which one is selected if they all have the same name?

you can assign index number in some pattern to the controls

e.g
chk_0
chk_1
chk_2
chk_3

Thanx

Thanks for the quick reply. You mean using that "identifier " in the tag property of the control? I'll give it a shot. Thanks again.

void AddControl(int index, Panel container)
{
CheckBox cb = new CheckBox();
cb.Name = "chk_"+index;
container.Controls.Add(cb);
}
