Hi,

You need to have a member declaration for the user control at the Page as
you have already for the Label in the user control.That means a member whose
name matches the ID of the user control and type matches the code-behinc
class type of the UC.

Protected WithEvents Uc1 As uc

(Please do not cross-post)
