User Control Change depending on location 1

[suicidaltendencies]

I have an user control that needs to be used in a public area and an administrative area. I'd like to use the same control but hide a datagrid if it is displayed in the public area and have the datagrid visible if it is in the admin. area. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Harold

You should access from the container page to your user control and its controls as well:

Control myControl = Page.FindControl("myControlId");
DataGrid dg = myControl.FindControl("gridId");
if(!userIsAdmin)
{
  dg.Visible = false;
}
