I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Here's my code:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArg s)
Handles Me.Load
Dim hyp As HyperLink = CType(Me.FindCo ntrol("hypFilt" &
Request.QuerySt ring("Filt")), HyperLink)
If Not hyp Is Nothing Then
hyp.Font.Bold = True
EndIf
End If
I have several hyperlink controls on a page. Some are ID = hypFiltA,
hypFiltB, hypFiltC, etc. They are used to filter some data by first letter
of the alphabet. The code runs, nothing crashes but but the code above never
finds them. hyp always = nothing.
"hypFilt" & Request.QuerySt ring("Filt") does evaluate out to the correct
value.
Thanks,

I should mention that the hyperlink controls are not embeded inside another
control. They are in a content section but they are recognized by
intellisense when I type "me.hyp..." into the vb code page.

Set a breakpoint and see if the id is formed correctly, run Me.FindControl
in the watch window, see what is inside the Me.Controls collection. This
should help you to figure out what is going on.

It seems that the ID's are fine. When I put me.hypFiltA, or me.hypFiltB, etc
in the watch, they give me a value.
Request.QuerySt ring("Filt") in the watch window returns what I expect: "A"
or "B" or "C" etc.
When I put me.Controls in the watch window, I get a count of 1.
When I put Me.FindControl( "hypFilt" & Request.QuerySt ring("Filt")) in the
watch window, it comes up as Nothing.
If I hard code me.hypFiltA in the same event handler, it works fine. The
control exists and I'm able to set its properties. But I don't want to code
all 26 letters of the alphabet into the event handler.
I tried this in other page events as well (preload, init, initcomplete,
loadcomplete, prerender, prerendercomple te... all with same results.

If you put Request.QuerySt ring("Filt") in the watch window, what do you see?

In which case, it sounds very much like the hypFiltA hyperlink isn't
actually in the Page control container. Might it be contained within another
container within the Page container e.g. an <asp:Panel... ?

No. Like I said in my 2nd post, it's all in a content section. It's a master
page setup (asp.net 2.0 if that helps). This is one of the content pages.
Here's the markup (below the @Page and the @Register Assembly lines):
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHol derID="ContentP laceHolder2"
