Change the textbox value of a usercontrol from the principal page Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet. Post a new message to this list... nail Hi. So I have a default.aspx page and 3 WebUserControls In the WebUserControl1, I have on TexBox, and in the default.aspx page I have a Button control. On the click event of the default.aspx page I need to change the TextBox.Text value, but not user the FindControl Method because I think this methos very slow. So, I want this, but not with findcontrol: void Button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ((TextBox)this.WebUserControl2_1.FindControl("TextBox1")).Text = "Principal page button clicked"; } Anybody has any idea how can I do that? My boss said the findcontrol method use reflection and is too slow. Understand now why I can't use findcontrol? :) Thanks ind advance. nail.

If you want a generic solution, where you need to refer to each textbox by a string - then I don't see any way other then to use reflection. If you don't need to refer to the textbox by a string held in a variable, you could make all the textboxes in the user control public, and then you could access them directly.

Try something like the following in the web user control public string TheText { get{return TextBox1.Text;} set{TextBox1.Text = value;} } Hope this helps, Mark Fitzpatrick Microsoft MVP - FrontPage "nail" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:Click here to reveal e-mail address...

It's an idea, but I guess my boss will discard too. But thanks. "Mark Fitzpatrick" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:Click here to reveal e-mail address...
