Is it possible to have a boolean value in the visible status of let's say a text box or a label? I am trying something like this :

<asp:label id=TestNumberLabel runat=Server visible="myVisibleStatus">Test Number</asp:label>

Anyways, I'm getting the following :

Parser Error Message: 'myVisibleStatus' is not a valid value for Boolean.

Source Error:

Line 85: <asp:label id=TestNumberLabel runat=Server visible = myVisibleStatus>Test Number</asp:label>

And if this should work, where would I construct myVisibleStatus. I put it in the WebForm Class.

I don't think that will work. You should try something like
    TestNumberLabel.Visible=true;
or
    boolean myVisibleStatus=false;
    TestNumberLabel.Visible=myVisibleStatus;
