If all the textobxes needed the same validation you could easily add a method to the container and have each textbox call teh containers method from its own valid.


Or, maybe a combination of a textbox and a listbox - so whatever you type in the textbox gets validated in it, and goes to the listbox. I've seen this sort of interface in several places, and it's not that bad at all. In the listbox's rightclick you may have the 'remove' method, or a 'remove selected' button below the listbox.

It's been said, if it can't be done in at least three ways...
