How to add textboxes in a Button Click
i.e
1. My web form has a Button(ButtonA)
2. Every time, when i click the button(ButtonA), a New Textbox should be created and place in my web form
3. And when i click another button(ButtonB), the values of all the textboxes should be stored in Database

I am new to ASP.NET, Please help me...

To add a control to a page, simply create a New instance of it and then add it to the page (or a control that belongs to the page e.g. a placeholder). e.g.

Dim tb as New TextBox
PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(tb)

You will have to create each dynamic control each time the page is loaded.

Thanks.
its working fine. But i was unable to change the position of text box. say first text box top position is 100, and second should be 150, third 200..

below is the code
======================
Dim strTextName As String
Dim tb As New TextBox
tb.ID = "txtSample" + i.ToString()
tb.Style("Top") = j.ToString() + "px"
i = i + 1
j = j + 50
PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(tb)
======================

Rather than create inline styles, I'd suggest using a seperate CSS file to position the controls. You can either do this by assigning each TextBox a different CSSClass or you could use the ID of each TextBox and then have a seperate entry in your CSS file for each ID.
