asp.net 4 trying to create a hyperlink in code behind

DougP (MIS)

this does nothing, althought in debug it goes line by line but there is no hyperlink anywhere that I can see. I want to create hyperlinks dynamically based on users.
What am I doing wrong?

CODE

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Dim UserRights As String = "Resource"

        If UserRights = "Resource" Then

            Dim hyp = New HyperLink()
            hyp.ID = "AddTime"
            hyp.NavigateUrl = "~/mypage.aspx"
            Page.Controls.Add(hyp)
        End If
    End Sub

You need to set the "Text" property to something.
The hyperlink is being created and rendered to the page. You are not seeing it because it is rendering this:
<a id="AddTime" href="mypage.aspx"></a>
