Hello

Many thanks for your reply..

Actually my requirement is ,

i have childform with some controls placed on that ,and one MDI parent form .

at page load of the MDIParent i want to display 4 childs(actually one childform already with controls is displayed using for loop) at run time ,whose functionality will be different

how can the controls on the dynamically created forms can be accessed ,

Hope you got my problem ..

It still seems as though his suggestion is valid.

You have an MDIParent with a child window that will have dynamicly created buttons. Wherever those buttons are dynamically created you can add the .ID="whatever".

With that being said however, if you don't set the ID property, I *believe* they take on similar names as when you add them to a form. (i.e. "Button1", "Button2", "Button3", etc...)
You could always dynamically create a few test buttons and see what they get for their ID.
