looking for a way to loop through a Form.ControlCollection in visual cobol. Any solutions?

set netInt to type System.Windows.Forms.Control ControlCollection::Count.
set gridViewIndex to 0.

perform until gridViewIndex = netInt

if controlList[gridViewIndex]::GetType = type TextBox
set type System.Windows.Forms.Form ControlCollection.Item[gridViewIndex]::ReadOnly to false
add 1 to gridViewIndex

end-perform.

compiler errors are: 

ControlCollection has no visible static member Count

type TextBox invalid operand

gridViewItem is invalid operand

    Something like this?

          perform varying ctrl as type Control thru self::Controls
               if ctrl::GetType = type of TextBox
    |                set ctrl as type TextBox::ReadOnly to false
               end-if
          end-perform.
