    Control Array Elements

    I am trying to paste a pile of text boxes onto a large form in groups
    of 15 when I try to copy the first group (0-14)and paste it below the
    elements are numbered backwards.(29-15) Is there a way to copy and
    paste these elements so each paste is a continuation of the element
    numbers in the same order as the first? or maybe a better way of
    handling groups of 15???

    Thanks

    As far as pasting the group, it's the way it is, I'm affraid, the control
    clip board is a LIFO structure of elements (last in First Out).

    To contour this issue, I'd suggest perhaps putting them in a frame control
    cut and pastign the frame itself, or one text box at a time if you really
    can't group them in frames.

      You would probably be a lot better off Loading and positioning the
      elements of the Control Array at run time

      Also, you can set the Tab order of things at run time

      It sounds as if you are writing some form of Grid
      - those things work nicely if 'wrapped' in a UserControl
