Asp:Label Display Error

[CJAI]

For some reason when I go to populate the text property of the <asp:Label> control I get the folllowing error:

code:
projectID.Text = "test"
<asp:Label ID="projectID" Runat="server" />

error:
Name 'projectID' is not declared.


Thanks all!

this is driving me nuts! anyone?

Is this (projectID.Text = "test") in a script block somewhere? I can't really tell by your post.

 

[Ecreations]

is ProjectID declared in Code behind as a label control?

What would you attempt to accomplish if you knew you would not fail?

Its not declared as a label control in the codebehind page...

How do you do this??????

Thanks

 

[CJAI]

fyi

The script is in a codebehind page

Do you have something in your class that looks similar to this?
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label projectID;
If not, delete your label, add a new one and try rebuilding.

No, I do not have protected
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label projectID;
in my class
