Adding a Textbox to a form at run time (Viual Basic 6.0)

Topic

Hello,

Can anyone tell me how to add 1 or more text boxes to a form at runtime?

This is pretty easy in Office 2000, but I cannot seem to figure it out in VB.

Thanks,

Use the Add method of the Controls collection of the form:

With Form1.Controls.Add(“VB.TextBox”, “txtText”)
.Visible = True
.Left = 300
.Top = 150
.Width = 900
.Height = 180
End With

Measurements are in twips; 1 inch = 1440 twips.

See Add Method (Controls Collection) in the MSDN library for more information.

Thank you very much. I knew it would be a simple answer, but I just didn’t have any luck finding it.

Thanks again!
