I was trying to find the solution for this but nothing works. I have around 650 textboxes named : A001A, A002A...A600A and I would like to put values in those texboxes for instance "example value".
I've found solution to put values in all textboxes in a form, but in mine there are those with some other values.
Next solution is this one :
Dim textBoxArr() As TextBox = {A2, A3, A4, A5, etc..}
For Each tb As TextBox In textBoxArr
Select Case tb.Text
Case "RESNO"
tb.Text = "-15,55,0"
Case "DOGAL"
tb.Text = "-15,54,0"
End Select
Next
...again I have to input all names and I don't have enough freedom to manipulate values for first 50 and so on.
This is the code I have and it doesn't work:
For I As Integer = 0 To 650
Dim txt As TextBox = DirectCast(Me.Controls("A00" & I.ToString & "A"), TextBox)
txt.Text = "example value"
Next
error: object reference not set to an instance of an object
Thanks for the help.
EDIT : I have found the solution from user Idle_Mind
Dim matches() As Control
For i As Integer = 1 To 650
matches = Me.Controls.Find("A" & String.Format("{0:000}", i) & "A", True)
If matches.Length > 0 AndAlso TypeOf matches(0) Is TextBox Then
Dim cb As TextBox = DirectCast(matches(0), TextBox)
If cb.Text = "" Then
cb.Text = "test"
End If
End If
Next
