read ascx file from desktop application

[Kristjan Sander via .NET 247]

Hello

I am trying to write a #C windows desktop application that loadsan ascx file contents (user control) from file, initiates it andthen registers to database everything it finds. I tried thatway:

1 Page page=new Page();
2 Control control=page.LoadControl(virtualPath);
3 string debug = control.ID;

but I got NullReferenceException on the 2nd line.

From earlier posthttp://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/29/148858.aspx
I found out that to create a control dynamically, one first needsto include className into the ascx and to register the controlin page. My brand new dynamically created page object of courselacks that registration and I guess that's why the LoadControlmethod does not work.

Is anybody able to explain, how to properly look up the contentsof an ascx file?

I would appreciate if you sent all answers directly to***************@just.ee as well.

Thanks in advance,

Kristjan
