asp.net building controls: Folks,

I have created a fully reusable, sortable, pageable datagrid as a
composite control (Compiled to a DLL). It works great.

I took that fully working code and tried to implement it as a derived
custom control and it does not display anything on the Browser. I
debugged in line by line and all the logic is executed correctly but
when the control goes to the browser, it just displays a blank screen.
I'm sure I'm doing something silly in my derived control.

Can anyone post a very simple derived datagrid control code or point
me to a sample code on the internet?

All,

I finally figured out. It was a stupid mistake. However I'm now facing
a new problem.

I have a statement like this which caches a dataview and retrieves
like the following

Cache.Insert(DataViewCacheName, myDataView, null,
DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(_CACHEDURATION),Cache.NoSlidingExpiration);

myDataView = (DataView)Cache[DataViewCacheName];

The above lines works perfectly in a typical web page. But I coded the
same lines inside a derived dtatgrid control, it thorws and error
saying

"C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\BugTracker\ControlsClasses\ControlsClasses\ICCDataGrid.cs(214):
'System.Web.Caching.Cache' denotes a 'class' where a 'variable' was
expected"

Any thoughts how to make cache work inside the derived control's code?

Thanks
