Trying to build controls and/or objects dynamically then loop through them has proven a real PITA, the closest I have come so far is using .NET's control arrays (not even as easy to use as VB6's, but I digress) which have the limitiation of having to be loaded.

So.... being former VFP developers did you put in anything like this?

for x = 1 to n 

l_controlstring = "thisform.txtTextbox" + alltrim(str(n)) + ".backcolor = rgb(255,213,202)"

&l_controlstring

next x

If you did, I'm sold.
