Turning off User Controls in ASP.NET

[Kent Ogletree]

I have built a user control that actually has 3 different sub user controls
embedded in it. Each of these sub controls displays data differently
depending on what a user selects and are tightly related to the others. The
problem I am running into is that even when I set visible to false, or even
disable the sub controls since they are not currently needed they still
execute and pull data from the database. This is going to make a major
performance hit on a production site.

How can I ensure the sub control is not active and does not execute its
code?

TIA,
Kent

Wrap the code you do not want to run with a "If Me.Visible Then"

Thanks Chris, I knew I was missing something simple.
