Finding controls in datalist

[Anakin2112]

I have looked everywhere with no success.

Is there a way to find out what controls are in a data list?
The controls in the datalist would be created dynamically when the page is created. I have no problem creating the controls, but I cant retrieve the control's value when I submit the page? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Use the .FindControl on the closest container that your code knows the control is in.


dim mine as control = datalist.index(row).findcontrol("controlID&quot

response.write(mine.text)
That'l do donkey, that'l do

thanks for the reply, but it is not working. It returns nothing.

Are you sure the control is there? Can you see it on the page?

If your sure that it is there and you can see it, then did you assign it's id to something before you added it to the controls collection of the datalist? That'l do donkey, that'l do
