I have written a WPF Application in VB.net. My Startup URI is MainWindow.xaml. The application is working fine.

However, I want to go back and use code to modify the attributes of some button controls. Specifically, I want to change the buttontext. To do this, I want to iterate through the controls collection to locate the buttons I want to change.

So I have entered this to iterate through the controls collection:

For Each myBtn as Control in Me.Controls

Next

But I get a message that says: "Controls is not a member of MainWindow".

I have searched for several days and have not been able to find an answer.

What am I doing wrong?...TIA.

I had seen this post, but didn't pursue it. I'm not a VB programmer, just a retired guy who like to try his hand at it occasionally. I'll see if I can convert the C# to VB and give it a try....Thanks. – Chuck_jazzman May 22 '23 at 02:18

I found some old code I had written 5 years ago, where I changed the button text. All I needed to do was "button1.Content='newText'". Works great! – Chuck_jazzman May 22 '23 at 14:10
