Control array?

[al]

I tried to look for the control array in VB.NET but didin't find any.
Tried tab index but didn't work. What is the alternative in .net??

Hi al,

There isn't really an alternative... it's obsolete because of the new way
the language works. You can however use the legacy libraries to simulate a
control array.... if it's necessary.

Why are you trying to do this? Perhaps we can offer an alternative
suggestion.

I see the other posts refer you to the solution... Horseshoes were really
awesome until tires came out... same holds true here.

I just want to fill 15 textboxes and 1 combobox with fields from a
dataset through a loop, instead of hardconding. I know the numeric
order of those fields (from the SQL sta.).But the way vb.net ordered
those controls in the form made it hard to get correct match with
those fields (I think vb.net, by default, places the first drawn
control as the first in the array that it uses to manage those
controls)
