Question

I have a table with several labels lbl1, lbl2…., lbl6… numbered serially

I want to access them in a for loop using a index. Here’s my puedocode

//PuedoCode:
int _NUMCOUNT = 6;
string labelname;
string[] strArray = new string[_NUMCOUNT];
//Store some values in strArray

for (int i=0; i<_NUMCOUNT; i++)
{
     labelname = "lbl" + (i + 1).ToString();
     labelname.Text = strArray[i]
 }

Can this be done? I don’t want to use a placeholder & add the labels into it. I already have the labels in a formatted table.

Thanks for the replies. It pointed me in the right direction.

I had to modify the code to

ContentPlaceHolder myContent = (ContentPlaceHolder)this.Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolder1"); //ASP page has master & this is the content page
string lblName = "lbl" + (i + 1).ToString();
Label lblControl = myContent.FindControl(lblName) as Label;
