Using a string to access a label?

Hi all and thanks for taking a look at my problem. I apologize if my question isn't exactly clear.

I am using .NET 1.1 VS 2003.

I would like to be able to set the text of a label using two separate strings. The best way I can describe what I would like to do is something like
"label1".text = otherString;
Where "label1" and otherString are both string objects.

"label1" (n-1) is a string that occurs in an array of strings immediately before otherString (n). So I am wanting to loop through this array, check each odd array element, use that string to access a label and set the text of that label with the next even array element.

I have found some things like System.Reflection. Is this the correct way to go about doing what I am trying to do? Is there a better way of doing this? Can it even be done?

Thanks!

First of all you need to know what the parent control is, then use "ParentControl.Controls.Find()" to get the control. If the label control is just a child of form, use "this.Controls.Find()".

Hope it helps.
