Clearing TextBoxes within GroupBoxes

[Ragnarox]

Hi all,

I am trying to clear all the textboxes on my form. The problem that I am having is that the textboxes are inside of GroupBoxes and the following code only sees the GroupBoxes.

Dim ctl As Control

For Each ctl In Controls
   If TypeOf ctl Is TextBox Then
       ctl.Text = ""
   End If
   [green]'test line to see what controls I am hitting[/green]
   MessageBox.Show(ctl.Name)
Next

Do I need to have a seperate variable to access the controls within the GroupBoxes and therefore have a nested loop or is there just something that I am missing?


Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

Hi all,

Just figured it out. Made new Control var and had a loop within the loop look for controls within the control.

Brian,

A recursive sub is usually better for this. There are plenty of examples of recursion here.
