I have a Windows form on which I need to display a series of text boxes, each displaying the value of a field from a different row of the dataset. In FoxPro, one way I have done is by using a macro to get an indirect reference to the text box name.

For example:

* Using the indirect reference
lcBaseName = "TypeDesc"
lcRowCount = 1
use myTable
scan
    lcCurrentTextBox = lcBaseName + str(lnRowCount)
    &lcCurrentTextBox.Value = myTable.TypeDesc
endfor

In .NET, I tried creating a variable with a type of Control and building it's name property using a counter but I couldn't get that to work.

The other way I have done this in FoxPro is to set the ControlSource to an element of an array built from the table. In .NET, I tried creating an arraylist from the table and assigning an element to the BindingSource and the Text properties (not at the same time) with no success.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I really don't want to hard code this if I can avoid it.

Thanks in advance.
