Hi,


I am 'fighting' with the code to construct a generic search method to find for and get the value of a given property on a form.

The Object's Hierarchy can be in a container or in a Page or even in a Page on a Page e.s.o.
Once the value of that Property is given, the form should act upon this value.
Now either I shall have to for/next through all my objects on the form - this could than eventualy turn into a very slowing thing since you can expect 200+ objects on the form. Alternatively I could do the for/next loop only once, at init, load the value into a array and just query that array, making the loop remarkably smaller and thus quicker. Obviously this array should be updated on the moment the property's value is changed but that is easy enough handled with an extra property on the object.
Now be4 reinventing the wheel. Do we have knowledge of any such class?
Regards,
Koen
