Can I remove a label, richtextbox in c#? when a button is clicked?

Question

I have a dynamically created

Label

,

RichTextBox

via a button that is constructed via array.

Label dateLabel = new Label();

dateLabel.Text = dateArray[i];

dateLabel.Name = "date" + i;

dateLabel.Location = new Point(154, 5 + (50 * i));

dateLabel.Tag = dateLabel;

dateLabel.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(91, 20);

panel1.Controls.Add(dateLabel);



RichTextBox placeTravelLabel = new RichTextBox();

placeTravelLabel.Text = placeTravelArray[i];

placeTravelLabel.Name = "placeTravel" + i;

placeTravelLabel.Location = new Point(272, 5 + (50 * i));

placeTravelLabel.Tag = placeTravelLabel;

placeTravelLabel.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(148, 45);

placeTravelLabel.ReadOnly = true;

panel1.Controls.Add(placeTravelLabel);



Button clearButton = new Button();

clearButton.Name = "clearButton" + i;

clearButton.Text = "Remove";

clearButton.Location = new Point(1200, 5 + (30 * i));

clearButton.Click += new EventHandler(this.clearButton_Click);

panel1.Controls.Add(clearButton);

Now I want them to be

remove

something like this.

public void clearButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

   dateLabel.Remove();

   placeTravelLabel.Remove();

}

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Yes, it is. Try

panel1.Controls.Remove(dateLabel);
panel1.Controls.Remove(placeTravelLabel);

You obviously need to hold the references to them when you create them (i.e. declare them as fields in your class) or mark them somehow (e.g. in Tag property) and enumerate panel1.Controls to find them later.
