Question

 Checkbox[,] checkArray = new Checkbox[2, 3]{{checkbox24,checkboxPref1,null},                                    {checkbox23,checkboxPref2,null}}; 

I am getting error . How do I initialize it?

Answer 1

OK, I think I see what’s happening here. You’re trying to initialize an array at a class level using this syntax, and one of the checkboxes is also a class level variable? Am I correct?

You can’t do that. You can only use static variables at that point. You need to move the init code into the constructor. At the class level do this:

 CheckBox[,] checkArray; 

Then in your constructor:

public Form1()         {             InitializeComponent();             checkArray = new CheckBox[2, 3] { { checkbox24,checkboxPref1,null}, {checkbox23,checkboxPref2,null}};         }
