Adding controls to a dynamic form?

[Connor T]

Hi,

I have a form which is dynamically generated from the contents of a Database
using commands such as this:

hostform.Controls.Add(aRadio)
However, that adds the control to the top level window. I want to add them
to a panel i've created so that can do the scrolling

Any ideas?

Rgds,

Dan

\\\
hostform.Panel1.Controls.Add(aRadio)
///

(Assuming that the control's modifier is set to 'Friend'/'Public'/...)

Connor,

Webform or Windowform?

For a windowform you have to set the
myControl.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(X, Y)
Accoording to the parent (the panel)

For a webform you have to do by instance
Me.Panel1.Controls.Add(New LiteralControl("<BR>"))
To go to a new row of controls

I hope this helps?

Excellent thanks! I kinda tried that, but put Panel1 in the wrong place,
Thanks!
