Changing Textbox from Codebehind???

[KenniM]

Maybe I should get some sleep, 'cause it seems that even the simplest things are becoming big problems now!

Problem:

1) I have a asp:Textbox named Textbox_Subject on my aspx.
2) I have a Codebehind file for the above aspx.
?) How do I clear/alter the text in that Textbox from within my Codebehind file???

I tried something like: Textbox_Subject.Text = "bla bla";
But it doesn't work!

Can anyone help me here!
Thanks!

That should work, it just depends where you're doing it.

Can you post more of your code for us?

Okay I figured it out! Here's the all too simple solution to my problem!

In my Codebehind file I forgot to declare my Textbox controls! Simply adding the following line made me able to access my <asp:Textbox ID=&quot;Textbox_Subject&quot;> 's attributes.

I declared it this way:
public TextBox TextBox_Subject;

Fantastic!

Hope this can be of help to someone with a similar problem!
