I suspect "This" is understood to mean the object in which you are executing the code; not each object which you are trying to set.
Perhaps you can use a FOR EACH loop instead of SetAll(). Another option might be an access or assign method in the baseclass of your TxtEdit objects: accessing a property would fire a method.
