Michael,
Do it with a private variable and public property.
Private _UserId As Int32
Public Property UserId() As Int32
Get
Return _UserId
End Get
Set (ByVal value As Int32)
_UserId = Value
End Set
End Property
'---And now here's the trick:
' On any page you want to access the property
' from in the HTML View just below the
' <@pagedelcarati on put:
' <%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/MasterPage.mast er" %> Like this:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile= "~/MasterPage.mast er"
MaintainScrollP ositionOnPostba ck="true" AutoEventWireup ="false"
CodeFile="Aucti on.aspx.vb" Inherits="Aucti on" title="Auction" %>
<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/MasterPage.mast er" %>
The MasterType declaration pointing to the master file in question is what
let's you access properties and other public declarations in the master
page.

The UserControl has a .Page property, from which you can get its MasterPage
ex:
this.Page.Maste rPageFile
then cast that appropriately to the MasterPage type to access your
property.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I tried setting up a Public Property, just as you
suggested and I still can't get access to the Property in the Master Page
from the UserControl on that Master Page.
Page.Master.??? ? don't work
I've also tried wrapping Master Page, Usercontrol in the same namespace and
I got other errors (saw this suggestion in another message). Am I trying to
access the master in the wrong way? Or am I missing something. Thanks.

Michael,
I'm not positive how to do it from the usercontrol itself, but this may lead
you in the right direction. From the page that the usercontrol is on you
just use Master.[Property]
That's what the MasterType reference lets you do.

sorry, I don't have many links on it, I've used master pages since 1.x so

they made in 2.0 by reading it in a book. Here's one article that looks

Michael,
If I understood your scenario correctly, then you have a master page (which
is a control on the page) that has a child user control that needs to
communicate data (users information that is generated perhaps after some user
input) to the parent control (the master page).
In such scenarios (of communicating data between 2 controls on a web form)
you need to look at using events. When the child user control finishes
collecting the user info, then you raise an event, that would be consumed by
the parent control (the master page), which in turn would display the data on
its control (or do whatever other processing required).
To understand how to raise an event from the child control and how to
consume it by the master page, review these articles on the MSDN: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/17sde2xt.aspx

Hi Phillip,
Thanks so much for the reply. I've started to look into this and have come
across one issue. It seems that AddHandler is not supported in ASP.NET. Is
this true, if so, what includes do I need to include into the project. Here
is what I have so far.
Just a refresher of what I needed:
1. User enter UserId & password and selects submit.
2. The login User control will check what roles they have and create a User
Object.
3. Set the User Object to a Value stored in the MasterPage.
4. Purchasing screen shown and depending on the Role the user has will
determine what the user sees (Admin/Standard user).
So what I have come up with so far based on the event based noticifaction.
Stand alone Class File:
Public Class UserInfoEventAr gs
Inherits EventArgs
Private _User as User
Public sub new(UserInfo as User )
_User = UserInfo
End Sub
Public ReadOnly Property UserInfo() as User
Get
UserInfo = _User
End Get
End Property
End Class
In the Login User Control:
Public Event Alarm as UserInfoEventHa ndler
Protected OverRidable Sub OnAlarm(e as UserInfoEventAr gs )
RaiseEvent Alarm(me, e)
End Sub
Sub AuthenticateUse r(userId as string, password as password)
'Do stuff here.......
'Now feed the UserInfo to the MasterPage via a Event
Dim e as New UserInfoEventAr gs(lUser)
OnAlarm(e)
'Do more stuff....
end sub
In the MasterPage:
AddHandler Alarm, AddressOf OnCurrentUser
Public sub OnCurrentUser(s ender as Object, e as UserInfoEventAr gs )
_CurrentUser = e.UserInfo
End Sub
Note: I get a syntax error on the AddHandler line.
Do I have this setup correctly for an ASP.NET page? Thanks again for any
suggestions.

Hi Michael,
You are 99% done. You just missed the correct syntax for AddHandler. It
should be like this:
AddHandler NameOfObject.Ev ent, AddressOf MethodHandlingT heEvent
e.g.
AddHandler LoginInfoObject .Alarm, AddressOf OnCurrentUser
You could have also used the handle keyword on your method declaration like
this:
Public sub OnCurrentUser(s ender as Object, e as UserInfoEventAr gs ) Handles
LoginInfoObject .Alarm
_CurrentUser = e.UserInfo
End Sub
