Dynamically Add Text Boxes

[nvwildfire]

Hi list.

I am trying to generate a matrix of text boxes based on a users input (i.e. the user selects 6 on my frmCreateMatrix form and the form frmMatrix pops up with a matrix of 6 x 6 text boxes). I'm not so worried about the looping code to do this but I have no idea how to create a text box at run time. Once I figure out how to create it then palacing it and nameing should be easy?

Anyway if anyone knows how to dynamically create text boxes at run time let me know. I'm sure its easy but I can not seem to find anything in my reference books.

thanks in advance

Place the first text box on the form, assign the index property to 1 then in code use:

count = TextBox1.Ubound + 1
Load TextBox1(count)
TextBox1.visible = true
TextBox1.Left = ?
TextBox1.Top = ?
