:-OSomehow I missed your post. Sorry about that.

In VB.Net this should work (code is untested): Private Sub Textbox_TextChanged(Sender as Object, e as EventArgs) Handles first_name.TextChanged, middle_name.TextChanged, last_name.TextChanged full_name.Text = first_name.Text & " " & middle_name.Text & " " & last_name.Text End Sub

I need to build a templated control whose template contents can be populated via the design surface (ala datalist) I have found absolutly nothing in the web about how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? ~Joe
