Looks like you are making progress.
You can create a single event handler for the label object to do this, however you could just as easily tag the event into the Drag Drop onto the label.
If you want to allow the user to actually type values into the object, you should replace the label component(s) with a TextBox component.
To turn a string from the label or TextBox (any string) into an integer you can use the parsing methods of that type.
int i;
string someValue = "123";
if (Int32.TryParse(someValue, out i))
{
// i now = 123
}
else
MessageBox.Show("Invalid value, must be numeric");
To control the size of your labels, you should set the AutoSize property to false.

Hi again,
first of all i cant stop telling you how much i appreciate your help, I've started this from almost 0% knowledge on winApp, basically I know some basic stuff and that's all, your really a life saver.
now OnTopic:
"If you want to allow the user to actually type values into the object, you should replace the label component(s) with a TextBox component."
There are 2 reasons why this is not an option for me:
1.Every box in the soduku table should hold a number between 1 to 9,so if i'll make it as a textbox, I'll have to do more "input checks"...
2.Drag n' Drop sounds cooler, and as far as i knows in the past years nobody done that in our school,so it is more special than normal text box.
I had no luck succeeding to convert to integer with the method you wrote... don't know why, i must be really noob
but i searched on the web and i found the convert to int method,
so this is the code i have so far:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int[,] mat = new int[9, 9];
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < 9; j++)
{
Label lbl = new Label();
lbl.Text = (i + 1).ToString();
mat[i,j] = Convert.ToInt32(lbl.Text);
lbl.Location = new Point(120 + (j * 100), 70 + (i * 40));
lbl.Size = new Size(label1.Width, label1.Height);
lbl.DragDrop += label1_DragDrop;
lbl.DragOver += label1_DragOver;
lbl.AllowDrop = true;
panel.Controls.Add(lbl);
}
}
and the matrix gets the numbers as it should
(checked it).
I've also attached a picture of how the form looks like,the drag n' drop is easy cause i made the size of the label fit exactly to the table's box size(done the autosize=false as you've said!).
Now some problems i thought of:
1.once the label is changed ,how can i change it in tthe Matrix , i need to get it's place,which i can't think of a way to do it :\
2.in a later stage when i'll have to make buttons for "sumbit to check" and "clear", if the "submit" is pressed i'll have to make an event handler,and than we can say i'll just need to rewrite my program from console app to the method,will i be able to send the matrix there?
Thank You,and sorry for my noob questions
