Hi All,
My code Is

for (int c = 0; c <3; c++)
   {
     inc += 1;
     TableCell tc3 = new TableCell();
     tc3.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Ridge;
     tot= new TextBox();
     tot.ID = "tot" + inc.ToString();
     tot.Width = 40;
     tc3.Controls.Add(tot);
     tr1.Cells.Add(tc3);
   }

In the above code creates three Text Boxes with unique ID's every time.
Here i need to place some strings to each Text Box when click a button.
I tried many ways but i didn't get result. Can any one help me please.

Thanks in advance.

Where did you try to put the string in textbox, using javascript or at server side code

Sry for bad english...

You can fill the textBoxes at creating point.

example 1 :

for (int c = 0; c <3; c++)
{
     inc += 1;
     TableCell tc3 = new TableCell();
     tc3.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Ridge;
     tot= new TextBox();
     tot.ID = "tot" + inc.ToString();
     tot.Text = "Some Text in here...";
     tot.Width = 40;
     tc3.Controls.Add(tot);
     tr1.Cells.Add(tc3);
}

or you enumerate the Controls after creation.

example 2 :

foreach(Control cObject in tc3.Controls)
{
     if(cObject.Name.Contains("tot"))
     {
          cObject.Text = "Some Text in here...";
     }
}

Is that helpful?

Greetings David

text is not a same value it varies every time means if textbox1 contains david textbox2 contains ram like that

Solution 3

int iIndex = 0;
List<string> lItems = new List<string>();
lItems.Add("David");
lItems.Add("Ram");
lItems.Add("...");
foreach(Control cObject in tc3.Controls)
{
     if(cObject.Name.Contains("tot"))
     {
          cObject.Text = lItems[iIndex];
          iIndex++;
     }
}

'System.Web.UI.Control' does not contain a definition for 'Name' and no extension method 'Name' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Web.UI.Control' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?
cObject.Name.Contains("tot") for this line Showing this exeception sir

Sry my fault.
Add the following code to the creation point of the textBox.
tot.Name = "tot" + inc.ToString();

i am Sorry to ask You sir Please Execuse me

Try to enumerate with the ID instead of the Name.
Like :
foreach(Control cObject in tc3.Controls)
{
if(cObject.ID.Contains("tot"))
{
cObject.Text = lItems[iIndex];
iIndex++;
}
}

Heres the solution :
Declare "System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox tot;" and "TableCell tc3 = new TableCell();" out of the for-loop.

C#

for (int c = 0; c < 3; c++)
{
    inc += 1;
    tc3.BorderStyle = System.Web.UI.WebControls.BorderStyle.Ridge;
    tot = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox();
    tot.ID = "tot" + inc.ToString();
    tot.Width = 40;
    tc3.Controls.Add(tot);
    tr1.Cells.Add(tc3);
}

To fill the TextBoxes enumerate the Controls.

Like this :

C#

int iIndex = 0;
List<String> lItems = new List<String>();
lItems.Add("Ram");
foreach (System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl wcObject in tc3.Controls)
{
    if (wcObject.ID.Contains("tot"))
    {
       ((System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox)wcObject).Text = lItems[iIndex];
       iIndex++;
    }
}
