Using a variable to refer to a control

[Wavequation]

Is it possible to use a string variable to refer to a control?

 

[Douglas J. Steele]

Dim strControlName As String

strControlName = "txtField1"
MsgBox "The content of " & strControlName & _
" is " & Me.Controls(strControlName)

 

[BrerGoose]

Even shorter....Me(strControlName)


BrerGoose

and even more correct: Me.Controls(strControlName).Value
