Hi,
Is it possible to change the type of controls at run-time?
In other words I have a form with TextBoxes etc. on it. If the user only
has readonly privelages I was wondering if I could change the type of
control from TextBox to a Label or something and set the text
programatcially as I would the textbox.
If so how do I do it?
Thanks!
Ron

Ron,
Once an object has been created, you can't change it's type. But you can
style a textbox that it will look like a label.

Check out this code sample at ASPNet101.com: http://aspnet101.com/aspnet101/aspne...?code=readonly
It specifically shows how to do what you're talking about.

Good stuff...sometim es the solution is easier than you think.
I created a CSS class for readonly and editable and based on the credentials
I switched the class out on the fly. Seems to work pretty slick in my test.
Thanks for the ideas!

I created a user control which is some text contained in a HtmlTable.
I put this control into main form. I would like to have the ability to
move this control around in the main form. I think one way to do this
is to change the style of this control at runtime ("Left:xx px; Top:xx
px"). Another way is to move the HtmlTable in the control (i.e. change
the style of it). However I couldn't figure out how to let it work. At

In an ASCX, I have a Literal control into which I inject a

This works great as long as the contains just client-side

What I want to do is somehow insert a *server control* into the , then set the server control's properties at runtime.

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,...
