Control Arrays

[T3rM1ght]

Hello there, I have a question concerning the final release of VB.NET,
will there be inherent support for creating control arrays as in VB6? I
am have a problem with code for a multi-user server which user winsock
control arrays which I ported over to VB.NET 2005 Express Beta 2 using
the upgrade feature. What happened was.. the original array I had set
for my wsArray control was changed in some way which I cant seem to
figure out.

If theres a way to maby re-create the same control array feature in
VB.NET as in VB6, (see screenshot), could you possibly give me a bit of
help on how to do so?

Hi,

In addition to Cor comments there is a free control array
component in the windows forms .net website that might help.

Unfortunately .NET doesn't support design-time control arrays. However,
there are several ways to mimick the behavior of control arrays:

Accessing controls by their names or indices
