Dynamically setting textbox width

What's the trick to dynamically setting the width of a textbox?

In the code behind page Page_Load function I'm trying to dynamically set the
width of a textbox.

TextBox1.Width = "75px"

I keep getting an error that the size has to be in WebControls.Uni ts.

I tried doing a CType to cast the value as a WebControl Unit and also tried
using "75" and 75. Neither worked.

What am I missing?

Hello, Newbie question: Does anyone know how to dynamically set the screen width in an applet? I have an applet that creates a horizontal bar menu on a webpage, and I would like the width to be 100%.

I have tried everything I can think of to change the visible property of a design time created control from a dynamically created control's command event handler. Here is the scenario.

I'm extremely frustrated with ASP.NET...again! To me this should be as simple as setting oCheckBox.Checked = True.. yet for some reason it isn't. I have a user control (ascx) that that has a checkbox and I can't get it to default to checked. I tried radiobuttons and experienced the same result.. can't start them as checked. The really frustrating thing is that I set the attributes of other input controls in the Init() with no problem. ...
