I have two related problems.
1. I am generating a control array on the fly with the following code:
Sub AddRow()
Dim newControl as ControlClass
newControl = new ControlClass1 // clone the existing control
if (newControl <> nil) then
// initialize the new control //
end if
This code works only if it is a method of the window, window1.Addrow.
If this same method is placed in a module or in a class, it generates a
"This method or property does not exist" compile error. I tried the
following modification:
Sub AddRow()
Dim newControl as ControlClass
newControl = new window1.ControlClass1 // clone the existing control
if (newControl <> nil) then
// initialize the new control //
end if
The error changed to: "This method requires more parameters than were
passed." The constructor for ControlClass does not take any
parameters.
If it is possible, how do I add controls to a control array from an
object other than the window?
2. When it comes time to call the method from anotherControlClass, the
call is as follows:
window1.Addrow
This works, but I would like to localize the code so that
anotherControlClass does not need to know the name of its parent window
(so that anotherControlClass can be added to any window).
The following:
me.window.Addrow
window.Addrow
window(0).Addrow (the application has only one window)
all give the "This method or property does not exist" error.
The anotherControlClass.window property does access the ordinary window
items like .top or .visible, but it cannot access any properties or
methods that I have added to the window.
Is there a way to call a window method from another class without
hard-coding the window name?
These are driving me crazy, so thank you in advance for any help you
can give.

Thanks,
David
