I have a question.... Im building a ASPX/VB form that builds dynamic controls based on user input and I cant get it to work to save my life... Basically, the user is given a form to describe an object (actually a storage container in a factory, but neither here nor there.) Anyway, the user puts in the basic info but the last line asks "How many containers?" This allows the user to put in a specified number that will then create dynamic text boxes that allows the user to input uniquie names for the number of containers specified and then inputs the results into a SQL table... For example....


Name: container 1
Property: Property1
Color: Red
Size: Big
Contents: Waste Product

Im I assuming you use controls.add but how do you make it dynamic? where you are creating X number of textboxes? Any help would be greatly appreciated.:confused:
 
try this..
Code: 
For x = 1 To 20
  txt = New textbox()
  With txt
    AddHandler .GotFocus, AddressOf txtClick
    .Text = "Textbox " & x.tostring
    .Location = New Point(0, x * 25)
    .Size = New Size(200, 60)
  End With
  Controls.Add(txt)
Next
