Hi all,

I have a form that contains one button and one textbox, the textbox will take a number that will be passed to another form. I have done this successfully.
The thing is that I need the second form to create a number of pictureboxes = the number received from the first form.

Any ideas?

Hi,

the following code will create a number of PictureBox controls and add them to your Form:

int receivedNumber = 5;
for (int pictureIndex = 0; pictureIndex < receivedNumber; pictureIndex++)
{
PictureBox box = new PictureBox();
// set box.Location and box.Size here
Controls.Add(box);
}

Hi Andrej,

I think your code is in VB.NET, isn't it?

actually I'm using C++.NET and I've tried a similar codein the form-Load action, but it seems that I cannot declare a new control (pictureBox - in my case ) inside this form_load.

int receivedNumber = 5;
for (int pictureIndex = 0; pictureIndex < receivedNumber; pictureIndex++)
{

System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox^ pictureBox1 = (gcnew System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox());

// set pictureBox1->Location and pictureBox1->Size here
}

I managed to do it.
