Display comboxes created at runtime
I am generating comboboxes as:
Public Combos() As ComboBox
later I use:
ReDim Combos(5)
For J = 0 To 5
Combos(J) = New ComboBox
Next
I use Combos(0).Items.Add(Item) for example to populate them.
However I cannot display the comboboxes on the form.
What is missing?

When I ran your code I got an error message at: Me.Controls.Add(x)
Controls is not a member of MyProgram.Data where Data is the subroutine containing the code.
How do I declare Controls?

Using your example I learned a lot about creating in runtime. Thank you!
Example:
For J = 0 To 5
ComboBox x = New ComboBox
x.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(60, 15)
x.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(30 * J, 200)
Me.Controls.Add(x)
Combos(J) = x
