detilsview problem with EditItemTemplat e

[vineetbindal]

HI All,

I have a details view in which i have a template column which contains a item template which contains a label(lblUser).

i am displaying some values on the label using

((Label)Details View1.FindContr ol("lblUser")). Text=UserLevel;

everything is fine till now...

now i want to add a EditItemTemplat e to this.

As soon as i add a EditItemTemplat e the above line throws the error(Object reference not set to an instance of an object.)(null referance exception)

i think it is not able to find the lblUser control now but why?????

can someone help me on this please......
