Button Click event

[mych]

I have a text box and button on a page. I want to set the TargetURL at the Click event so that I can pass a Querystring.

My code is....

Protected Sub ButFind_Click(By Val sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

    Dim clickedButton AS Button = sender
    
    clickedButton.PostBackUrl - "FindCandidate.aspx=?CID" & txFindCandidate.text

End Sub

My problem is that the code says txFindCandidate is not defined. Where have I gone wrong?

Thanks

I've not failed! Just found 100 ways that don't work...yet!

OK fixed....

First I tried....

Protected Sub ButFind_Click(By Val sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

    Dim clickedButton As Button = sender
    Dim CandNo As String = Me.txFindCandidate.text
    
    clickedButton.PostBackUrl = "FindCandidate.aspx=?CID" & CandNo

End Sub

This worked but required the button to be pressed twice.

I then changed the code to....

Protected Sub ButFind_Click(By Val sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

    Dim CandNo As String = Me.txFindCandidate.text
    
    Request.Redirect("FindCandidate.aspx=?CID" & CandNo)

End Sub

Works great even though Me.txFindCandidate has a blue wavy line and it says 'txFindCandidate' is not a member of '_Default'
