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.Units.

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?

How about : Me.TextBox1.Size = New System.Drawing.Size
(80, 20)

Kind Regards
