Delphi Control Array (How do I do it?)
Those of you that have dabbled in VB must know what a control array is, for those of you that haven''t it''s basically an indexed set of like-controls with a common set of event handlers. For instance button[1], button[2], and button[3] would all have a common click event, in which you could determine the index of the pressed button and react accordingly. Is there a way to do this in Delphi? Or is there a way to implement it? I know I can assign a common event handler to each button and check a preset tag value, but that doesn''t give me a way to index the controls. I need to be able to loop through the entire set of buttons each time one is pushed (is there a way to accomplish this?). Any advice would be appreciated.
P.S. I heard there was a TControlArray component floating around a while back, but I have yet to run across it. (Anyone know anything about this?)
