Well i have a set of shapes on my form called Shape1 through to Shape11. How do I relate those shapes to positions in the myShapes array?

so myShapes[1] would refer to Shape1..

ok, so I have defined a shape class in my unit1.h file and put shape myShapes[11]; in my unit1.cpp file.

How do I relate the shape array to shapes on my form?

I have no other files.. I'm confused as to where and how i define and then declare the shape/s.

#ifndef Unit1H
#define Unit1H...

Ok, just trying it on a brand new form:


#include <vcl.h>
#pragma hdrstop

#include "Unit1.h"
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
#pragma...

Thanks for the help, but how do I go about creating an array of shapes?

Is it possible to add a character to the end of a variable name?

I have a set of shapes on my form. The shapes are named Shape1 through to Shape11. The object is to get the shapes moving...
