user control property

[Guoqi Zheng]

Dear sir,

I have Page Header user control. On my main page, I have the following code.

<uc1:header id="MyHeader" runat="server"
PageName="OurProducts.aspx"></uc1:header>

PageName property is a public variable inside that user control. When I put
the value of PageName inside the html code, everything works ok. However, I
would like to determine the value of PageName by coding. So I do the
following.

public Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
MyHeader.PageName = "Others.aspx"
End Sub

When I tried to compile the code, I always get an error of Name "MyHeader"
not declared.

Can someone point out what I did wrong here? I am using VS.NET 2003

In your code-behind, do: protected withevents MyHeader as header, where MyHeader *must* match whatever you use for ID of the instance of the control on your page, and header is the name of the user control class

Yo need to declare the header variable in the CodeBehind script if you want
to manipulate it there. Something like:

Protected MyHeader As header
