Assuming all your textboxes are prefixed with "txt", you could try something like:

Code:

    Dim e As Control
    
    For Each e In Me.Controls
        If (TypeOf e Is TextBox) Then
            MsgBox e.Name + " = " + e.Text
        End If
    Next

I haven't used VB in a while, so I don't remember if there's a way to check the type of a control... like "if e is TextBox" (which you can do in .net)

[edit]

NM, Just remembered it. Code above edited for TypeOf
