using a variable to represent a textboxname

[TB]

Hi All:

Is it possible to to use a variable to represent a textboxname? As I have a
form with a lot of similarly named textboxes to be populated by similarly
named colums from a table, I would like to do something like this
(pseudocode):

dim i as integer

for i = 0 to 10
txtbox(i).text = row.item("field" & i).ToString()
next

If the above is possible, what would be the exact code?

Thanks

TB

If you name your textboxes TextBox1, TextBox2, etc, you could do with

For i=0 to 10
Page.FindControl("TextBox" & i).Text = row.item("field" & i).ToString()
Next i

Enjoy the programming!
