This is a technique for late-binding to controls on your forms or usercontrols. Other techniques that I've seen on this web-site involve using control arrays. But in order to do this you need to include a reference to the control from the components menu.

The late-binding technique requires only the ProgID of the object as listed under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT in your registry.

This code will combine the contents of 2 arrays into a single array. I found the code for adding 2 byte arrays somewhere on the net, but I can't find it again to give the original author credit.

Updated to incorporate a VB 6 split function emulator for VB5 users. Also changed date format to lower case for compatibility with controls that don't like upper case date formats.

(eg. mm/dd/yyyy in the U.S., dd/mm/yyyy in England, dd.mm.yyyy in Germany, etc).
