re:> then just set the text
As stated in the original post, that is not an acceptable option. That requires many lines of code and difficult to maintain.

re:> There is no TextBox constructor taking parameters and ....
That understood. Thanks for the info on that.
re:> you probably should add the new control somewhere...
Does this mean I cannot use the existing text boxes? It seems you are creating brand new text boxes. If so, is there any way to cycle through the text boxes on the form and when their name matches ReadFromDict.YYYYConrol then enter the string value in ReadFromDict.YYYY.ToString
Thanks,
Mike
