Siegfried,
All you have to do is loop through the environment variables and for
each one you come across, call the Add method on the ControlCollection
exposed by your form. Just make sure you position it correctly, and know
how to reference it from the ControlCollection (associate the index in the
collection with the environment variable somewhere).
You can do the same thing for your button handler, just have it create a
new TextBox, and pass it to the Add method of the ControlsCollection
instance exposed by the Controls property on your form.
Hope this helps.
