The “Nifty Container” offers you a graphical way of managing the controls on your form. All you do is surround a group of controls with a box, choose one of the coding examples, or write your own, and there you go, you have a simple and easy-to-use method, which avoids using your Control(s) Tag Property, (the usual method of doing this) which you might well want to use for something else. There are many ways to identify controls on your form for particular attention. This “Nifty Container” idea I have developed is unique, I haven’t come across it anywhere else.

This method utilizes a simple rectangle as a Container to surround a bunch of controls. Call the code and it will cycle through the objects within the rectangle and alter them to your specific programming requirements.
