QuestionWhy are there no form control arrays in vb.net? Pin

I have a large application in VB6 which makes extensive use of control arrays as they are so easily used and referenced by the index value

With future support disappearing after win7 I am trying to code extensions in a way that will make the eventual transfer to vb.net easier but faced with a form that has 4 groups of 10 simple list combo boxes that need to be set at runtime and then saved after the user has selected their content all the alternatives to control arrays significantly increase the amount of typing that I have to do and therefore the opportunity for a typo that compiles (each control is called cmbCAtab1, cmbCAtab2 etc which is easy for cut and paste but easier to miss changing one of the names afterwards and it would still compile)

Would it really hurt VB.net so much to have Control Arrays which it seams to me were quite a simple way of handling things

I appreciate there are ways to combine the event handlers and to set and read the "array" of controls in VB.net but WHY should I have to jump through all the extra hoops when I should just be able to use an index value???

It would also help VB6 applications move to VB.net which I would have thought was part of the aim of the .net version developers

Gets under desk and puts fingers in ears, ok people fire away!
