Hello,

I'm trying to access a Label Control on my .aspx page from a User Control.
But I don't manage it.
Do somebody help me to do that ?

My aspx is mypage.aspx
a control label in it :

<asp:Label id="myLabel" runat="server"></asp:Label>

In ascx :
How to fix the Text property of the label ID=mylabel.

thanks a lot.

You can use FindControl("YourControlID"), but IMO it's a bit odd (and perhaps
indicative of a flawed design) to have a user control make an assumption
about the presence of a Control elsewhere on the page.

If the UserControl is under your control (at design time), I would
suggest that "myLabel" is made public.

That's the best way to go about it.
