How to programmatically access views?

Question

I have a lot of views. And I like to have them placed in the program, taking the size of the screen in account. But I have a problem accessing the views in a loop.

Now, I have to take one view at the time:

view1.top = xdip
view2.top = xdip

What I really want to do is:

for c = 1 to 40
    view(c).top = ...
next

But I can't get it to work. Can anyone enlighten me?

See this tutorial.

Here is an example:

For i = 0 To Activity.NumberOfViews - 1
    Dim v As View
    v = Activity.GetView(i)
    v.Top = 30dip
Next

I have seen this, but how do I know what view is what view? Do the view's number get in the order I create them? – WizardOz Nov 07 '11 at 20:06
You can add your views to a List or array. It will be easier to handle specific views this way. – Erel Nov 07 '11 at 20:13
