deleteing a control

[Ezguy]

HI iam creating picturebox control with picture at runtime.

 

this is my problem when I delete one of the them using the

 

controlname.dispose()

 

Iam still able to acces the control properties by refering to its name

 

please tell me how to delete this permanently

[Volte]

ControlName.Dispose()

ControlName = Nothing

 

That should do it.

try this...

   Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
       Button2.Dispose()
       Controls.Remove(Button2) '/// you must remove it from the form's control collection.
       Button2 = Nothing
       If Not Button2 Is Nothing Then
           MessageBox.Show("still exsists!")
       Else
           MessageBox.Show("it's gone!")
       End If
   End Sub

I dont know if I understood your correctly but you will always be able to access the control from code, even if its disposed because the variable held the instance of the control is still there.
