How to tell if control is loaded

[Tim Cowan]

Hi

I am loading command buttons at run- time in a control array. Is there
anyway to see if a particular element is already loaded? somthing like:

If IsLoaded(Mycmd(3)) then "Don't try to load it again"

Can anyone suggest a way to test or do I have to wait for the error to be
generated and go from there.

Thanks

Well, the easy way may be to trap the error, but you could do something like
this:

Dim ctl As Control
Dim bFound As Boolean

For Each ctl In MyCmd
If ctl.Index = 3 Then
bFound = True
Exit For
End If
Next ctl
If bFound Then
MsgBox "Found it"
Else
MsgBox "Not found"
End If

Hope that helps,
Larry
