create control at runtime

[panteliadis babis]

Does anyone know if the creation of a textbox control for instance at runtime
on an opened form is supported?
Any ideas?

You're probably better off adding the textbox as normal, but not making it
visible until you need it. Much easier and more reliable.

Only if the form is opened in design view. It's generally better to create
as many controls as you may need at design time and toggle the visibility of
the controls at runtime.

Thank you guys,
That's what i' am having now as technique.
The real problem is how to get in design mode when you work on the form at
runtime, add the control,and get back in view mode.
Crash, dust and ashes i get so far!!!
