Nested usercontrols - system.page not reachable?

Web app: asp.net 2003, IE, IIS, VB
top: system.page
-first level: placeholder
--second level: usercontrol
---third level: user control containing a datagrid

Datagrid itemdatabound assigns:
Dim button As LinkButton = CType(e.Item.Cells(0).Controls(0), LinkButton)
e.Item.Cells(1).Attributes("onclick") =
Page.GetPostBackClientHyperlink(button, "")

When debugging "Page" is nothing. "Me.Page" is nothing. Traced "e's" parents
back to the datagrid object at which point the datagrid's parent is nothing.

If I place the usercontrol containing the datagrid in a placeholder and the
placeholder on web page, this works just fine.

Just out of curiosity, why does the datagrid not see it's parent usercontrol
when the parent usercontrol is a control of another usercontrol?

Hope this makes sense....

Turn on Trace ... inspect Trace.axd for particular request of page and see
whole tree of controls on your page. You will get answer.
