Hi,
I have created a few of my own user and custom controls and have =
discovered through msdn how to created databound templated controls. =
What I would like to know is how to create a control/class similar to =
ListItem where free text can go in between the open and close tag.

ie <blah:CustomListItem value=3D"1">one</blah:CustomListItem>

How is it the the text 'one' gets assigned to the ListItem's Text =
property? Would be great if I had the source code so I could see how =
this is done.

Any suggestions welcome.
Cameron

Hi Cameron!

The easiest way of completing this is by inheriting your class from
panel. This also gives you a very flexible solution that you can
endevelop.

<code>

namespace CustomControls
{
    public class MyTest : Panel
    {
         //set your propertiest etc. here
    }
}

</code>

Then call it from the aspx page like follows:

<code>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="Custom" Namespace="CustomControls" Assembly =
"CustomControls" %>

...

<Custom:MyTest runat=server>
    This is the inner text
</Custom:MyTest>

</code>

Look at Persist... design-time attributes. These attributes are at class
level and affect where in the ASPX persistence for the class the attributes
for the class will store the values.

Off the top of my head, one is "PersistChildren(true|false)" which specifies
whether or not to have a class store its children in the persistible medium
(aspx).
