Hi, I am newbie to vb.net and am developing a windows application for a client.
In that index page, when a first textbox text changed, it should automatically add a new field below the first textbox. And if the second textbox ( child control)text changed, it should automatically add a new field below the second textbox. This will go until the last text field doesn't change.
The textbox created so far, but i cannot set the position for the child controls...its merged.. Have to give the dynamic X,Y points but my code not crossing the level.
I tried the below code.
int x=8;
int y=8;
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TextBox txtBox = new TextBox();
txtBox.Name = "TextBoxName";
txtBox.Location = new Point(x, y);
this.panel1.Controls.Add(txtBox);
txtBox.TextChanged += new EventHandler(this.TextBox_TextChanged);
}
private void TextBox_TextChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int n = 2;
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++)
{
TextBox tb = new TextBox();
tb.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(8, 8 + i * 20);
tb.Name = "TextBoxName" + i.ToString();
tb.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(184, 20);
tb.TabIndex = i + 2;
this.panel1.Controls.Add(tb);
IterateThroughChildren(this);
}
}
private void IterateThroughChildren(Control parentControl)
{
foreach (Control childControl in parentControl.Controls)
{
// Find a Particular Control by its Type
if (childControl.GetType().ToString().Equals("System.Windows.Forms.TextBox"))
{
childControl.TextChanged += new EventHandler(this.TextBox_TextChanged);
}
if (childControl.HasChildren)
{
IterateThroughChildren(childControl);
}
}
}
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks
