can this be done?
I want to display different web user controls based on the selection from
the user.
 
Sure thing. There are lots of ways to do this. You could put each user
control in a asp panel object (all set with visible and enabled properties
set to false). Then when a user makes a selection, such as in a dropdown or
clicking a linkbutton, you capture the event and set the visible and enabled
properties for that particular panel to true. You can also have a
placeholder object that you could dynamically load the needed user control
into.

Hope this helps,

Yes. You can load different user controls dynamically. Try this;

Control myControl = Page.LoadControl("myControl.ascx");
Then you can add this control to a place holder for example like below; (Or
to a table etc..)

myPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(myControl );

Hope this helps,

It would take far less time to tell you what CANNOT be done:

....

All finished. Next time you want to know if something can be done in
ASP.Net, just refer to the ellipsis. Whatever is in that list cannot be
done. ;-)

BTW, I didn't mention all the ways that this can be done, as there are
so-o-o many. Mark has listed a few.
