    me.controls

    me.fraDate.Top = Me.Controls("fr a" & Me.cboDate.Text ).Top

    The top line is from vb6 how can I do the same thing in
    vb.net?

    fraDate is a panal
    me.cbodate is a combo box with a value of 1 - 6 in it.
    I also have 6 panals named fra1, fra2, fra3, etc.

    Thanks for the help!

      Add all controls to a hashtable ('Hashtable'), the name as key and the
      value is the reference to the control.

          vb6.

              No, there is no direct way to refer to the controly by their name.

                  Re: me.controls

                  ok, so I dim a 2 dimential array? The first column being
                  the number (1-6) and the second column being the name of
                  the corresponding panal?

                  What do I dim the arrary as a string? How do I use the
                  array in a statment latter on in the program?

                  Thanks for the help!

                          Hi,

                          Kind of an aside, but a keyed Controls collection will be in the next
                          version of Windows Forms.
