FindControl - Find Hyperlink control in FooterTemplate? 1

[russland]

Hi,

I need to find the hyperlink control that I placed in the FooterTemplate of a gridview. I thought that's easy by just using myGridView.FindControl("myHyperlink")

Well, obviously it's not. What am I missing? Is the FooterTemplate a control of its own?

Thanks for any hint.

Protected Sub GridView1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowDataBound
   If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Footer Then
      Dim hl As New HyperLink
      hl = e.Row.FindControl("Hyperlink1")
   End If
End Sub
