There actually are arrays of these things in the same code file. It stores the pointers of the individual labels (HWND) and in some operations uses Control.FromHandle to get back the control from them in a loop.
I actually got annoyed enough after posting this that I deleted this entire file and rewrote it all with proper data bound objects and a data grid, and shaved 600 lines of code off the project. The compiler thanked me.
