To do that, you'd need some superclass or interface that all those control classes share, which define the stuff they have in common. No such interface exists, so you're pretty much out of luck (unless you want to make a subclass of each of them that implements an interface you define, and use only those subclasses in your window). Alternatively, of course, since there are only a handful of these classes anyway, you can just use an if/elseif structure testing whether it IsA EditField, or IsA StaticText, or IsA Listbox, and then typecasts and sets the properties accordingly. That's what I would do.
