VB Forum / General 2 / January 2007Method or data member not found
Form has Label named lblOne with Caption blank Code: lblOne.Caption = "One" Error message: Method or data member not found. Caption is highlighted If .Caption is deleted then "." typed, drop down box list only shows: Count, Item, LBound, UBound If label is deleted and replaced with a text box and code is changed to: txtOne. the drop down list includes "Text" and Text is selected. then = *calculated numerical data value* follows Text. Program runs. Then second text box added to form named txtTwo and code is added simular to that for text box one, above error message comes up. Again drop down box now only shows the Count etc list. Delete second text box and now first text box that ran OK is now showing the error message. A different project is using a single label to show calculated numerical data OK. Is the problem that only one label or text box can be used to show data on a form? Each label or text box has a unique name. I am a member of a local computer club with more than 350 members. I am the only one who writes code.

I made one label postioned and sized it the way I wanted, Then did several copy and pasts, repositioned and re-named. I deleted all the labels and individually re-installed. All is fine now. Thank you very much Jan. Chuck > Yes I did - sort of. I made one label postioned and sized it the way I > wanted, > Then did several copy and pasts, repositioned and re-named. You probably should have answered No to the pop up question "Wanna make a control array?" > I deleted all the labels and individually re-installed. > All is fine now. FYI, you can also un-array-ify the labels by 1. changing the name of each label, so they all have different names, and 2. setting the Index property of each label to blank >> Yes I did - sort of.

The values in the index property were not blank, but they were all different. You did say 1 *and* 2, not 1 *or* 2.

You did say 1 *and* 2, not 1 *or* 2. Yes, that's right. If you had, for instance, LabelA(0), LabelB(1), and LabelC(2), you would have three separate control arrays, each with one element in them. To set their captions, you would have to type LabelB(1).Caption = "boo", etc. The control array is not a true array, it is more of a collection with integer keys. Thus you could have LabelD(1) and LabelD(3), a control array with two elements, whose indexes were not sequential. However, for reasons of sanity, most VB programmers use control arrays with sequentially numbered elements, starting at 0. |
