Problem cycling throught datepicker dynamic controls

[sethindeed]

...

 

Here is my code :

 

For Each ctl in GroupBox1.Controls

If Not TypeOf ctl Is Label Then

ctl.Text = OleReader (ctl.Name.ToString)

End If

Next

 

All controls update themselves except for the DateTime picker. The reason is simple, it does not have a Text property, it uses the Value property instead. I can't directly refer to the DateTime Picker in the code (i.e OpenTime.Value = "0:00:00 AM" ) because the control is loaded from a class at runtime.

 

Is there a way to assign to the ctl variable the datatime picker type of control, then cycle throught it. What was supposed to be a dynamic application turns out to be a complete headache.

 

thx

Nevermind

I solved my problem.

ctl will accept the Text property for a datepicker even if it is not in its collection.

One of .Net strong point, I have to admit ;)
