Add controls in vb.net programmatically 1

[PC888]

Could someone give me a hint how this could be done?
I have added 10 labels (using an array), and I have assigned true to .visible and .enable properties, but I do not see them on the form.
I know in VB6, one would put the .index value to non-zero, but in vb.net, I cannot find the .index property.
Thanks a million.

You don't have arrays as such in .NET like you could in VB6

To simply add a label at runtime you need something similar to this

Dim lbl as New Label

lbl.name = "lbl1"
lbl.text = "Something"
lbl.Left = 5

and so on setting your properties.

Then you need to add it to your page...lets say a panel on your form.

Panel1.Controls.Add(lbl)

You can create an array and then use the above code to generate each label.

Everything works perfectly now, thanks for your info, sjn78.
