Problem with template file for datalist

Greg

I have a web page with a datalist in it that binds to a datatable. Within
the template I call a function to process one of fields and return the data.
This worked perfectly until I moved the template into a separate file and
specified DataList1.ItemTemplate = Page.LoadTemplate("template.ascx") in
code behind. Now I get the error: Name 'MyFunction' is not declared. If I
removed MyFunction from the template file it displays the page properly.

Example (works when the template is part of the web page but not as a
separate file):
<%# MyFunction(DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.MyField")) %>
Anyone know what the problem is?

Greg,

When you're using a code-behind file "MyFunction" will have to be declared
as a public function in the code-behind file.

I figured it out. What I needed to do was change it from just MyFunction to
MyAssemblyName.MyClass.MyFunction. I also needed to added Shared to
MyFunction.
