Setting control values from one user control to another
I have two user controls on a page. Control 1 is view. Control2 is search. User selects value on Control2 and I want to update Control1(View). I cannot find syntax to change values on Control1 from Control2. The following is function on Control1 that is called from Control2 after pageInit and load on Control1. I have tried many many ways to findControl but all fail.
'Function on Control1 called from Control2 after Control1 PageInit/load:
Public Function loadFormValues(ByVal intValue As Int32)
Dim tb As New TextBox
tb = parent.findControl("Control1").FindControl("tbsecure_lastname")' fails at finding textbox on Control1
tb.Text = intValue
End Function'Note: In this app I have no control of the page name or form name.

Sounds like you need to set the SELECT parameter of the datasource of your view to the control .text value of the textbox. Then have your button_click event do Datasource.Databind()
"nothing" really matters!

tyrus I'm not entirely clear on the hierarchy of your controls and how they are used, but does your Control1 contain simple set of controls or something more complex involving DetailsView or FormView? My testing with simple user controls seems to indicate that your code should work. If you have more complex hierarchy, then you may be missing a reference to one of the container when using FindControl(). Also, is your Control2 calling a function defined in Control1 (above code) and exactly where is this being called from (which event)?

jcasp I am calling from ItemCommand of linkbutton.
The hierarchy is defined by dotnetnuke more than I.
Private Sub dgSearchResults_ItemCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridCommandEventArgs) Handles dgSearchResults.ItemCommand
Dim lButFname As LinkButton
Dim objView As New viewSecMan'Try
lButFname = e.Item.FindControl("lbutFullName")
objView.loadFormValues(CInt(lButFname.CommandArgument.ToString))
'Catch ex As Exception'End Try
End Sub

sconard I'm not familiar with dotnetnuke (you may want to post your question on that thread), but it's possible that your control is embedded within another container which may need to be accessed before using the FindControl() function. It all depends on your hierarchy involved. FindControl() is one of the most confusing feature in this respect. You may also want to do a search on this forum for "FindControl" since many topics were discussed under various conditions. One of them may apply to your situation. Good luck.

jcasp I also want to note that exposing control values as properties in the senerio at the head of this post will yeild an "Object Not Found" error since the control has loaded.

sconard You'd have to do that through the parent of the User Controls.
In User Control #1:
Create a public property to the child control:
public string ControlValue
{
get
{
this.EnsureChildControls();
return this.TextBox1.Text;
}
set
{
this.EnsureChildControls();
this.TextBox1.Text = value;
}
}In User Control #2:
Create a public property to the child control:
public string ControlValue
{
get
{
this.EnsureChildControls();
return this.TextBox1.Text;
}
set
{
this.EnsureChildControls();
this.TextBox1.Text = value;
}
}In the parent (aspx):
Create global references to the User Controls
protected YourUserControlA YourUserControlA1;
protected YourUserControlB YourUserControlB1;Then to set the property:
YourUserControlB1.ControlValue = YourUserControlA1.ControlValue;NC...

I have a web user control being used by another web user control, but the one being used will not display the labels in the resx file.
I am using DotNetNuke version 3.13 (might be 3.013) on a Window's XP machine, SP2. I have what I find to be an extremely odd situation. I have a project called TDS.Controls. This project is a web control library. Each control has its own resx file, which is located in the App_LocalResources directory. Each control inherits from Framework.UserControlBase, just like DotNetNuke's User control in DNN\Controls\User.ascx.vb. As a matter of fact, this control is doing the exact same thing I am trying to do. It is a web user control with its own resx file being used by another web user control (See ...

How to pass control values from one ascx user-control to another???
Our site is set up using a primary default aspx page that is used as the "base page" for everything. On this page, we dynmaically place various user controls at run-time.

Works great except for one thing... trying to figure out the best way to pass control names/values accross user controls. When the same usercontrol is posting back to itself this is a non issue. So far most of our functionality has worked well using the local...
