find index of array object

[galhajaj]

Hello :)
for a chess program, i made a 8x8 array of square:PictureBox objects
and i set variables inside them for the row & col
there is a way to dont use those row & col variables and just "take" the index of the
square from the 8x8 array when i need the location of it?
for example when i click on it and i have the square as (sender as Square) there is a way to know where its loacation inside the array?

thanks in advance!

You could set the tab order or you could fill in a Tag field.
Perhaps you could assign a number to each Square?
You could extract a number from the Name?
Many possibilities. Remember the formula is i*8+j.
