Create an object out of an array

Perhaps I didn't explaine myself the first time around so here is my second go at it.

I need to declare objects from a list of strings inside an array.

So my array goes out to a DB and collects the names from one colums. This names will all be an object. Now I want to define each object with that name fromt he column dynamicly.

So the array has say 5 elements in it of type string.

So going though my for look i cannot seem t o dynamicly create the object.

So instead of manually going myobject test = new myobject();

I just want to declare it by looping though the array.

You can convert an array to objects by using System.Linq's select operator. You create an object for every i in the array and return a new object for it like this

var array = new string[2]{"one","two"};
var objects = array.Select(i=> new Object{Name = array[i]}).ToArray();

MyObject[] myArray = new MyObject[3];
for (int i =0; i < myArray.Length; i++)
{
    MyObject obj = new MyObject();
    myArray[i] = obj;
}

I'am not pretty sure what your question is, but if I see your code than you want to create objects in your array?

Maybe this is your solution:

MyObject[] myArray = new MyObject[4];
for (int i =0; i < myArray.Length; ++)
{    
myArray[i] = new MyObject();
}

Hope this will help you.
