Does anyone know if there is a way to do a two dimensional control array? This is how it would be used...

Imagine one Form, with 5 frames (Index 0-4), and 10 combo boxes inside of each frame (Indexes 0-9).

Notice the "1" and the "2" when making reference to these controls...

Form1.frm
frame_test1(0) - (4)
combo_test1(0) - (9)

frame_test2(0) - (4)
combo_test2(0) - (9)

etc...
Basically, it takes up "code space" to have to specifically identfity the "1"s and the "2"s in the control names. I can't use 0-9, 10-19, etc., because I am creating the controls dymically.

Thanks!

Unfortunately no, you cant have multidimensional control arrays. You can solve your problem using modulo arithmetic. You would have an array of combos only (0 to 39)

To find out which frame combo(23) is in we do:

<pre>FrameNo = 23 Mod 4</pre>

which returns 3, so combo box 23 is in frame 3, assuming frames go from 0 to 3.

Combo 13 goes in frame one (13 Mod 4 = 1). and so on.......

thanks Squirm.
Let me try that out.

in the same state of mind you can use the first digit to determine witch tab you're in like this

1,2,3,4,5,6 would all be in tab 0
11,12,13,14,15 would all be in tab 1
21,22,23,24,25 would all be in tab 2
31,32,33,34,35 would all be in tab 3

just do fix ((index)/10)
