accessing a user control

[Gertie]

Hello,

 

I have a usercontrol. In it is a string declared.

 

Now for me a simple question, but not easy to find an answer on the net: Can i get the value of this string to a new string in the form that has the ascx file implemented on it?

 

thanks a lot, Gertie

ok, so far

 

so far all i came up with is making a function in the user control named GiveUser that returns the string.

 

Then i made following changes in my form.

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

'Put user code to initialize the page here

Dim hoofding As Control = Page.FindControl("Hoofding")

Dim hoofdingType As Type = hoofding.GetType

Dim hoofdingGetUser As PropertyInfo = hoofdingType.GetProperty("GiveUser")

strUser = hoofdingGetUser.GetValue(hoofding, Nothing).ToString()

 

If strUser = "" Then

pnlLogIn.Visible = False

pnlLogOut.Visible = True

Else

pnlLogIn.Visible = True

pnlLogOut.Visible = False

End If

End Sub

 

thanks, guys for any help on this
