Question

I have a list and i have added my winform textboxes to it as shown below, but the list is 0 based, as the count starts from 0, how do i make it 1 based?

List<TextBox> textBoxList = new List<TextBox>();
textBoxList.Add(textBox1);
textBoxList.Add(textBox2);
textBoxList.Add(textBox3);
textBoxList.Add(textBox4);
textBoxList.Add(textBox5);
textBoxList.Add(textBox6);
textBoxList.Add(textBox7);
textBoxList.Add(textBox8);
textBoxList.Add(textBox9);
textBoxList.Add(textBox10);
textBoxList.Add(textBox11);
textBoxList.Add(textBox12);

I have an index which can be any number from 1 to 12, illd like to use this index to find the right textbox so index 6 will be textbox 6 .. rather than textbox 5

heres what i did and it seems to work :D, simple enough i guess.. still learning ..

                                    var tb = textBoxList;
                                    int newDef = def - 1;
                                    tb[newDef].Text = "occupied";
