vb.net - Access a dynamically created textbox text from another sub. And I also want to be user-configurable and access the user-configured text -

textbox.text want access. , want user-configurable before want access altered text.

dim qbox new textbox         qbox.size = new size(20, 20)         qbox.location = new point(90, 10)         qbox.parent = addtocart         qbox.name = "quarts"         qbox.text = "ss"** 

how dynamically add inside series of other dynamic controls:

tile.controls.add(addtocart)             flpp.controls.add(tile)         tile.controls.add(plabel)         tile.controls.add(nlabel)         addtocart.controls.add(qbox) 

how tried access it:

qb.text = ctype(me.controls("flpp").controls("tile").controls("addtocart").controls("qbox"), textbox).text 

i generated textbox @ runtime. of course it's dynamic. i'm new vb , i'm experimenting school project. wanted textbox text configurable , access configured value. i've been brain-cracking days this. when run thing, "getobject reference not set instance of object." under nullreferenceexception unhandled" this. don't it.

winforms? if yes, , want find control "by name", use controls.find() function:

dim ctlname string = "quarts" dim matches() control = me.controls.find(ctlname, true) if matches.length > 0 andalso typeof matches(0) textbox     dim tb textbox = directcast(matches(0), textbox)     ' ... use "tb" somehow ...     dim value string = tb.text     messagebox.show(value) end if
