Reference to an object

Pramuditha

In actionscripting you can make a referrence to a _root level object named "button1" by following code:

x=1
_root["button" add x]

Is there a way how I can do the same with VB 6.0?

It's true that I can do it manualy. But I'm searching for a easier way. In actionscripting this can be done with the following code

In VB, this will be a lot easier if the labels are in a control array, and the variables are also an array. That way, you could just code something like If the controls are not in an array, you could sort of work around it by bulding the name as a string. For example... If the variables are not in an array, then I don't think you'd have much option but to code them each as individual statements. Arrays make life much simpler.
