dynamic controls and accessing their text values

I have a list box of products a coffee machine has to
produce, that the user
can choose from. After they do their selection of
products, into a panel
control i dynamically create textboxes with id's text1,
text2 ....

i need to read in the values entered in the text boxes.

when i try to access the textboxes with the following code
from MSDN, it
tells me the "Object reference not set to an instance of
the object. "

dim lbl as label
lbl = ctype(panel1.fi ndcontrol("text 1"), Label)

'error on this line

lblSomething.te xt=lbl.text

I can see the text1 dynamic control on the page, but
cannot access its text
property, any help is appreciated thanks in advance...

hi all, I have this seemingly simple problem. I have lost a lot of time on it though. When a user selects a value from a dropdownlist (static control) a dynamic control is generated. I have to create the dynamic controls in the OnInit stage of the lifecycle. Since data from static controls is not yet available in the OnInit stage I can't know what dynamic control I have to create.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
