I Have a lot of Textboxes on my form and from an array I put numbers into these textboxes.
But it is only some of the textboxes that I want to put numbers in.

The names of my textboxes are TB1,TB2,TB3,TB4,TB5.........

My array consist of these numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6......

I find the correct textboxes using this metod -

For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If TypeName(ctl) = "TextBox" Then
If LCase(Left(ctl.Name, 2)) = "tb" Then
ctl.Value = ArrayMaterielPlacering(X, 3)
X = X + 1
End If
End If
Next ctl

What I want to do is to put the numbers fra the array into the textboxes -
1 into TB1, 2 into TB2, 3 into TB3, 4 into TB4.....

But the result came out this way

TB1 = 1, TB2 = 2, TB3 = 4, TB4 = 3, TB5 = 5, TB6 = 6 ....

TB3 and TB4 is swapping number ?

I found out that the metode - For Each ctl In Me.Controls -
found the textboxes on the form in this way - TB1,TB2,TB4,TB3,TB5,TB6.......

Hwo can I make the metod - For Each ctl In Me.Controls - find TB3 before TB4 ?

What I did was to change the place of TB4 and TB3 and then change the names, but is
it the correct way to do it ? Will there be ploblems later on ?

Hi,
One solution is to use the number of the textbox as the value of X
i.e. for tb3 , x=3: for tb10, x=10

For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If TypeName(ctl) = "TextBox" Then
If LCase(Left(ctl.Name, 2)) = "tb" Then
x = Right(ctl.Name, Len(ctl.Name) - 2)
ctl.Value = ArrayMaterielPlacering(x, 3)

End If
End If
Next ctl

this is not the way you are looking for , but
assuming your textbox number minus 1 matches array index,
and textbox number start at 3, then this one would work?

For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If TypeName(ctl) = "TextBox" Then
If LCase(Left(ctl.Name, 2)) = "tb" Then
ctl.Value = ArrayMaterielPlacering(Mid(ctl.Name, 3) - 1, 3)
End If
End If
Next ctl

The index of controls is set by the order they added to the form, whether
that was at design stage (typically) or if added at run time. The index's
and the order will not change and not affected by tab order or position
order. If you delete a control "later" index's will shift down. I guess you
added the TB4 to the form before TB3.

Lot's of ways in code to correct but simple solution for you would be to
swap names of TB3 & TB4, then swap their relative visual properties.

TB3 TBtmp : TB4 TB3 : TBtmp TB4

Thanks for your help. I will look at it later today.
