dynamic webcontrols in asp.net 2.0

[NickMalloy]

How do you get data from dynamically created textboxes that are in a placeholder that resides in a content page controled by a master page. I recreate the textbox everytime the page loads. I used this same code in 1.1 and it worked fine, now it isn't.

Here is two ways I have tried
<code>
Dim a As TextBox
a = CType(Me.Page.FindControl("first12"), TextBox)

Dim mpContentPlaceHolder As ContentPlaceHolder
Dim mpTextBox As TextBox
mpContentPlaceHolder = _
CType(Master.FindControl("cp"), _
ContentPlaceHolder)
If Not mpContentPlaceHolder Is Nothing Then
mpTextBox = CType(mpContentPlaceHolder.Page.FindControl("first12"), _
TextBox)
If Not mpTextBox Is Nothing Then
mpTextBox.Text = "TextBox found!"
Else
Response.Write("Not Fount")
End If
End If
</code>

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

That code is found in the btn click sub. The page load is where the controls are created.

Create any dynamic conrols in the page_init event.
