Dynamically accessing user control's properties

windhopper

I'm trying to access a user controls properties dynamically from within another user control. The user control i'm using is called MultiImageControl and i'm trying to add ImageControl dynamically as well as it's properties. Is this possible? This is the code i'm using:

public partial class MultiImageControl : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
UserControl mic = new UserControl();
mic = (UserControl)LoadControl("ImageControl.ascx");
Controls.Add(mic);
pnlImage.Controls.Add(mic);

Thanks

Hi When you say Controls.Add it refres to this.Controls.Add and in your code it will be refrered as MultiImageControl.Controls.Add ..... And againg you are adding "mic" to pnlImage object. Whats this "pnlImage" object ??

pnlImage is a panel to display the control but i solved the problem thanks. I was being an idiot and wasn't registering the control in my page. :doh: But if you're interested this is what the code looked like in the end:

    ImageControl mic = (ImageControl)LoadControl("ImageControl.ascx");
    mic.LeadingEdge = "width";
    mic.EdgeLength = 120;
    mic.ContentAreaId = 7;
    mic.LocalGateway = "GatewayPic.aspx";
    mic.IDtype1 = 2;
    Controls.Add(mic);
    pnlImage.Controls.Add(mic);
