viewstate question??

[Raed Sawalha]

Hi
I have created a usercontrol in which I save a value in viewstate like this:
ViewState["myValue"]=value;
If I use the same key (ViewState["myValue"]=value;) in my master page, does
the framework recognize where the value comes from ? Or have I to set
ViewState["myValuefrommyusercontrol"]=value; and
ViewState["myValuefrommymasterpage"]=value; ?
Regards

A usercontrol and your page can both have the same named Viewstate item.
They will not collide, but they also will not be visible to each other.

What you can do is access the Page object's viewstate from the usercontrol.

Create a property (MyProperty) on your Page that returns/sets your
viewstate. Then in the usercontrol

Dim x as string = CType(Page, MyMasterPage).MyProperty
