How can controls be grouped so they can be referenced as a single item?

[tfelber]

I'm creating a multi-UUT application and have multiple controls for each UUT.  I've grouped them within a decoration and copied them for the number of UUT's possible.  What I'd like to be able to do is group them logically so I could relocate or hide them as a group rather than specifying attributes for each control in the group.  Any ideas?

Put each group on a Tab control?

simpler than that, put them on a panel and remove the title bar and borders of the panel. now you can create as many instances as you wish of your set of controls: call CreatePanel() and specify, for the parent argument, the handle to the panel onto which you want them to appear.

Another alternative is to use an array with the list of controls to keep
together and write a set of functions to set attributes to all of them, but
that's rather more complex than the previous solutions.
