By queries I meant all the queries excuted to render one page. In my aplication one page is generated with multiple queries. Thus, I want user to click on a button (which I have on every page) and then see all the queries executed to build that page. I am not clear how a server call can help? These queries are neither stored on the database side nor I want to save it in a file or in database. I would like to achieve this by keeping it in memory or stream etc. I was thinking on either saving the sqls in javascript or was also thinking on lines of TraceListener. I am just not sure how? Anybody has better approach, please suggest with a solution. Thanks

Yes, you answered it right. I changed the variable from userID to sID, w/o changing the scope or syntax, it worked. Thanks a lot for your help. :-)

I tried doing what you mentioned. Did not work! Do I need to assign an ID to the user control? Without that I am not able to findControl on the page.<ucl:myCntrl runat="server" id="uclCntrl" /> On page load: Dim ucl As System.Web.UI.UserControl ucl = Me.Master.FindControl("uclCntl") Response.Write("Found User control " & (Not ucl Is Nothing) & " !") ' I get True for this ucl.Test() 'ERROR: Test is not a member of System.Web.UI.UserControl What is wrong here?

Well, I have one more question. Like I mentioned based on user control's parameter value I need to perform different client side validation. I could set parameter of user control (have a property, suggest if there is another better way), but how can I use this property value in Javascript? Thanks for bearing with me.

Yes, document.getElementByID("txtName") also returns the object. I have my controls declared in asp:content tag. Does it have anything to do with that? I remove asp:content and put controls in body tag document.frmMain.txtName works.

IIS_WPG is the iis worker process group. Any user or identity that you are trying to use to be the indentity of the application pool also need to be in the IIS_WPG group. Thinking about it aspnet user would already be in this group. Still the identity of your app pool it probably network service. That group most likely doesn't have rights to delete the file. Ben

The only other method is to use Reflection, but it's incredibly slow. You really need to rethink this design. You're treating variable names as an integral part of the Data and Business Logic, which you should NEVER do, nor do you ever need to do it in a proper design. You're combining functions that really should be seperated. You're needlessly trying to get a single function to return a value from a number of arrays when this is never necessary. If you want functionality like this, put your data into DataTables. A guide to posting questions on CodeProject[^] Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP Visual Developer - Visual Basic      2006, 2007
