Article 9892 of 2005 handles this in C#. But I want to know if MS inegrated something in the recent years.

Everyone knows the continuous forms in MS Access, but I want to develop it standalone.

If you are willing to try WPF, there is an XAML Repeater Control: XAML Repeater Control - Reflection IT[^]
The repeater control was already available in ASP.NET.

Here is an example with a User Control in VB.NET: WinForms Custom Container Control[^]

There seems to have been a Repeater Control Add-in in Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks: Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks Namespace | Microsoft Docs[^]

Hi Rick,

Thanks for your input, but I think this datarepeater doesn't give the ability to format controls independently per occurance, since fontsize and format are control-dependent.

What do I mean: e.g.
repetition 4 textbox2 would be bold, red, size 14
repetition 8 textbox1 would be yellow underlined

and so on.

The "deep clone" class in https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/9892/Continuous-Forms-for-NET article seems to handle it, but I can't get it working ....yet ...

will post the solution when I get it. I like to code with the KISS method (Keep It Stupid Simple)

regards and thanks again
Johan
