generate wizard steps automatically

Naif_Prof

Hi, how we can generate wizard steps automatically base on variable for example when page load check the value of the variable and then crate wizard steps equal to the value of variable and then set the property of each step. Thanks a ot :doh: :wtf: :confused:

Here is a simple example of programmatically creating wizard steps. The trick is to create the steps in the PreInit event of the page.

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

for (int i=0; i<data.Length; i++)
{
    WizardStep theStep = new WizardStep();
    theStep.ID = "Step" + i.ToString();
    theStep.Title = "Step " + i.ToString();
    theStep.StepType = WizardStepType.Auto;

    // add some controls to the first step
    Label label1 = new Label();
    label1.Text = "<br />" + data\[i\] + "<br />";
    theStep.Controls.Add(label1);
    TextBox tb1 = new TextBox();
    tb1.ID = "txt" + i.ToString();
    theStep.Controls.Add(tb1);

    // add the step to the wizard
    wiz1.WizardSteps.Add(theStep);   
}

// set the active step to the first
wiz1.ActiveStepIndex=0;

}
