Hey,
Instead of trying to use symbolic references to the objects, one solution would be to store the objects in an array and simply iterate over the array to access the objects. You could also use a hash if you want to access them by name. I've used this method when using TabStrip controls. Here is an example:
#creating objects
my @objects;
foreach(0..4){
push @objects, $parent->AddDateTime->new(-name => "DateTime$_");
}
#accessing objects
foreach(0..4){
$objects[$_]->SetDateTime(...);
}
__END__
Hope this helps.
Kevin.
