Question

It’s a bit difficult for me to describe, but this pseudo C# should explain what I’m trying to do.

There is a large number of labels on a windows form.

I’d like to change the text colour of some of those labels.

private void allBlackLabels()
{
    int[] lray = { 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 };
    foreach (int i in lray)
    {
        label[i].Forecolor = Color.Black;
    }            
}

I hope that explains what I am trying to do here.

Now it’s obvious it won’t work due to the label[i], but how would I get around this?

Answer 1

It might not work, because your Labels aren’t held in an array. The following code will work, considering you know the names of the label to be changed:

Label[] lray = { labelOne, labelDifferent, labelWhatElse };
foreach (Label label in lray)
{
    label.ForeColor = Color.Black;
}
