Question

Let’s say I have 30 controls, all lbls, all called “lblA” with a number after.

I also have 30 textboxes, same thing – called “txtB” with a number after.

How exactly would I formated this.

for (i = 1; i < this.controls.count;i++)
{
    if ("lblA"+i=null)
    {
        break;
    }
    string A = string A + ("lblA" + i).Text
    string B = string B + ("txtB" + i).Text
}

I’ve tried a few different things like calling the object with this.controls[i] but it’s not exactly what I want. What I am doing is I have a lot of labels and text boxes in a form that are added at run time. I need to loop through the form to get them all. I’m writting it as a for each with quite a few ifs, but I’m curious if there’s a dynamic way to do it.

I’ve looked for about 1-1:30 hours online and found nothing close to, thanks for the help all.

Answer 1

var labels = new Dictionary<int, string>();
for (i = 1; i < this.controls.count;i++)
{
    var label = FindControl("lblA" + i) as Label;
    if (label == null)
    {
        break;
    }
    labels.Add(i, label.Text);
}
