accessing a user control from another user control (casting)

[fcoomermd]

how do I access controls on one user control from another, so I can set their properties?

I am hearing casting is the way to do it
for example:

Dim blah As ProjectName.dashboard = DirectCast(Me, ProjectName.dashboard)

NOTE: dashboard is a user control name

however this doesn't work...
any ideas? thanks
