Loop problem with array

[Alkis Arxontas]

I am using Visual Basic Express 2008.
I'm really new to this, so this one could sound really kind of a joke to you, but the thing I want to do is:
Have a text box (Textbox1) and I'd like by clicking a button to display the next array item starting from the first one, but actually it does only show the last one (comments(2)) everytime I click on the button. This is the code I added to my button:

Private Sub Button6_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles Button6.Click
Dim comments(2) As String
comments(0) = "Some text1.."
comments(1) = "Some text2.."
comments(2) = "Some text3.."

For i = 0 To 2
TextBox1.Text = comments(i)
Next

End Sub

The For ...Next runs so fast trough the data that the textbox has no time to refresh, so you see only the last text.

If you want to see the text with a time interval, you have to ad a timer.

Hi Alkis,

Try this code

TextBox1.Text = ""
For i = 0 To 2
TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & vbcrlf & comments(i)
Next

why you need to loop if you need to show only 1 result without any comparison?

'declare a global varialble X
'As Integer

Dim X As Integer

Public Sub Button6_Click()
dim strStatements(2 ) as String
strStatements(0 ) = "statement 1"
strStatements(1 ) = "statement 2"
strStatements(2 ) = "statement 3"
if X > 2 Then
exit(0);
Else
Textbox1.Text=s trStatements(X)
X += 1
End if
End Sub

'PS: your code is correct but..
'you forgot to put your looping variable in the Next function

'it should be like this "Next i"
