Custom Controls

[transparent]

Hi all.

I'm building a custom control which generates a date picker.

In my control, if I try to access data (that's stored in the viewstate of the custom control) within the onint event, I can't access the viewstate data.

If I do this in the page_load event of the custom control, I can access this data.

However I need to be able to access this data before the controls page load event (since the containing pages page-load event will have fired before the custom controls event).

Ho do I do this?

expand the: #Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code "

Place code there:
Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
'CODEGEN: This method call is required by the Web Form Designer
'Do not modify it using the code editor.
InitializeComponent() 'before this line
End Sub

I tried this - it didnt work.

Any other ideas?
