Question : VB 2008 - Programmatically updating controls from an array

I have a user control that includes a collection of oval-shape controls.  I want to update the fill color based on the content of an array of structure variables.  I need a way to programmatically select the right oval-shape control based on it's name.  Something like this (but works!)...

For x = 1 to 10
     Control.Name("Well_A" & x).FillColor = array(x).groupcolor
Next x

Thanks for your help.

Yeah...if they were normal controls then the approach you originally posted (and Paul_Harris_Fusion tried to extend) would have worked.

Unfortunately, though, the ShapeControls are an oddity!...  =O
