I have an ascx file (call it usercontrol) that loads into an aspx file
(parent). Usercontrol contains a hyperlink that when clicked, calls a
method on parent that will than load text into parent.label1. From
Usercontrol, I've tried using a linkbutton and its
OnClick="assemblyname.ParentPage.SomeMethod("my test text")" but that
doesn't work. Any ideas how this is done?

Thanks.

The best way is to raise an event to the page.
I've listed more details on the subject here:
