[Gambas-user] Hope I'm doing this correctly - I'm searching for help to reference a control using a variable

[Gianluigi]

Hi, David,
You can do this:

Public Sub Form_Open()

  Label1.Border = Border.Plain
  Label1.Alignment = Align.Center

End

Public Sub Button1_Click()

  Dim sString As String ' Defaul is ""
  Dim iInt As Integer

  iInt = 2753 + 235
  sString = "Sum result = " & CStr(iInt)
  Label1.text = sString
  ' or
  ' Label1.Text = "Sum result = " & CStr(2753 + 235)

End

Regards
Gianluigi
