labels collections

[Bhadan]

Hello,

I wish to create a collection from labels on a form.
I know the form has a control setting.
But I wish to access specifically numbered lables only ( label20 to
label50);
any advice is appreciated.

TIA,
Bhads.

The Form.Controls collection can be indexed by name or ordinal:

Label l1 = (Label) this.Controls[3];

or

Label l2 = (Label) this.Controls["label20"];

Create an array:

Label[] labels

There's no good designer support for that, unfortunately, but it's the
most natural way of doing things IMO.
