Hi Charles,
I guess that will work, but it strikes me as being a very code
intensive way of doing it.
How about another idea? One not so cumbersome?
If I have a name of the StaticText (ST) object that is a child of the
(thanks to your code example earlier this year)
ResizeableRelocatableRectangle (RRR), can I cast that into a ST
object I can work with?
I've got about 6 such rectangles with an ST object inside of each.
Going through all those objects each time the mouse enters any one of
them is cumbersome.
If figure that if I know the name of the ST object based on the name
of the RRR, I should be able to identify that ST object and set that
to a generic ST property in the RRR. Then I can manipulate it as the
RRR is being manipulated.
My challenge is trying to figure out how to cast a string with the
name of the ST object to be loaded into the property.
Things like....
rectName = me.Name // get name of control
stName = "st" + Mid(rectName, 5, Len(rectName))
stAccess = StaticText(Control)stName
....just don't seem to get it. And I can't find any good examples of
what I'm trying to do up in the Archive.
Regards,
Chuck
P.S. I've put in some feedback to REAL Soft about finding All My
Children as a property of RectControl objects.

There isn't one; you'll need to implement it yourself. For example --
Function Children(c as RectControl) as RectControl()
dim theList(-1) as RectControl
if c.Window is nil then
return theList
end if
for i as Integer = 0 to c.Window.ControlCount - 1
if c.Window.Control(i) IsA RectControl then
if c.Window.Control(i).Parent is me then
theList.Append c.Window.Control(i)
end if
end if
next
return theList
End Function

What is the call that will identify all the child objects inside
of a control?
I see where child objects can find their parent object. But not
the other way around.
