Hello all;

In asp.net 1.1 i was able to do the following--

1. Create a user control - myusercontrol.ascx
2. In the default.aspx page add the following code:

dim myCtrl as myusercontrol
myCtrl=LoadControl("myusercontrol.ascx")

But in ASP.NET 2.0 i am unable to do the above. That is,
I am able to create the control as Public. But when i try to define a variable i don't see myusercontrol as choice.

Can some one guide me?

Thanks a bunch.

Thanks,
MB

Have you added a Register directive on the page for the usercontrol?

thanks for the response ca8msm. I don't think we need to do that. I know for sure (also double checked in a 1.1 version) i did not have to register the control to use it while declaring variable.


Thanks,

Yes, it has changed, and I don't know what is different or why. I would really like to know if someone has information. I found this way of doing what you want, just a little different.

Dim c1 As Control = LoadControl("myusercontrol.ascx")
        Page.FindControl("Form1").Controls.Add(c1)

thanks jbenson001. Now i need a suggestion. I have events declared in myUserControl. I adding handler in the default.aspx page to handle the events. Here's the code i had in 1.x version. Can anybody tell how to implement the same in 2.0

-----------------------------------------------------------

myUserControl.ascx
Public Class GeneralsubMenu
Inherits System.Web.UI.UserControl
Public Event GenericViewEvent()
Protected Sub genericView_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles genericView.Click
RaiseEvent GenericViewEvent()
End Sub
End Class

Default.aspx
Protected WithEvents cMenu As GeneralsubMenu
cMenu = LoadControl("GeneralsubMenu.ascx")
AddHandler cMenu.GenericViewEvent, AddressOf RunTask

sub RunTask()
'Do task
end sub

Thanks,
MB
