I'm not sure what you mean by database control, but if you want to access
something that's in a user control from the main page, that isn't too hard.
Since you haven't given too much information, I see two possibilities: Your
user control is either static or dynamic. In both cases its just a matter
of setting the information you want public, or the methods you want to be
able to call to public.
public class myControl
inherits UserControl
private _isLoaded as boolean = tru
public readonly property IsLoaded() as boolean
get
return _isLoaded
end get
end property
....
public sub DoSomething()
End Sub
...
end class
from webform1, you are loading the control like:
<mytag:myControl id="mine" runat="server" />
you can simply access mine.IsLoaded or mine.DoSomething
If you are dynamically loading the control, like:
Dim c as Control = Page.LoadControl("MyControl.ascx")
somePlaceholder.Controls.add(c)
you simply need to properly cast the control -->
Dim c as MyControl= ctype(Page.LoadControl("MyControl.ascx"), MyControl)
dim controlLoaded as boolean = c.IsLoaded
c.DoSomething
somePlaceholder.Controls.add(c)
Hope this Helps

Ok that worked. Now I have another problem.
I have database controls in my user control and I want to access them from
my WebForm1.aspx. I found this on the net but I can't seem to figure out
where to put the code. I"m not even sure if this will help me out with my
problem

How are you raising the event? You should be hooking into the
repeater's OnITemCommand event...not the linkbutton's click event..

message news:51**********************************@microsof t.com... I've added a LinkButton to a repeater control and I set the link
button as follows:
<asp:LinkButton ID="DLLinkButton" CommandArgument='<%#
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "DownloadID")%>' Runat=server
CommandName="DLCount" >Download Now!</asp:LinkButton>
When I click this button it dosen't do anything instead of calling the
function I created.
BTW, is this the best way to go about calling the function? I tried
putting in the onClick command the following:
OnClick='<% DLCount(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,
"DownloadID"))%>'
But that didn't work. Any Ideas?
