Access Data in UserControl

[Guest]

I am trying to access the SelectedIndex property of DropDownList but the
dropDownList is in a UserControl.

I'm sure this is very simple but I can't work it out ( please help.

Normally, you would simply expose a property in the user control, such as
public class SomeControl inherits UserControl

property readonly SelectedIndex as Integer
get
return ddl.SelectedIndex
end get
end property


which you can access from your page, by simple doing

protected myControl as SomeControl 'this is just the declaration you
already have in your page...


sub void someClick(...)
dim x as integer myControl.SelectedIndex
end sub
