In a test project, I have created two WebForms and one WebUserControl =
that contains a textbox and a button. I would like to display a string =
in the textbox when the WebForm1 is used, but another string when =
WebForm2 is used. How can I do this? Do I have to create 2 different =
classes and then reference them in the "@ Register" directive, like =
this?

In WebForm1:
<%@ Register TagPrefix=3D"uc1" TagName=3D"WebUserControl1" =
Src=3D"WebCtrlForForm1.ascx" %>=20

In WebForm2:
<%@ Register TagPrefix=3D"uc1" TagName=3D"WebUserControl1" =
Src=3D"WebCtrlForForm2.ascx" %>=20

But what about the default class that is created when I create the =
WebUserControl? Is it safe to delete it? Sorry for so many question, but =
WebControls are a subject that I cannot really understand.

Any help is appreciated...

Thank you very much.

hi Mike,
have your UserControl expose a text property. Your going to have to use =
get/set accessors here. And then programmatically reference this text =
property on your webform that way if you were on webform1 you would go :
webusercontrol1.text =3D "Text specific to webform1"

and if you were on webform2 :
webusercontrol1.text =3D "Text specific to webform2"
[quoted text, click to view]

HI Alessandro,

The problem is that I don't see the user control in my WebForm. I added =
the properties to the template page, in which I have my 3 controls. But =
then the Main page does not inherit from this template.ascx. This is the =
first time I am doing this, and I think something is wrong with the =
inheritance or register directive. But cannot find the problem.

if you simply dragged the userControl from solution explorer in vs.net =
and dropped it on the page vs.net will automatically put the @ directive =
and reference your control on the page for you. In addition it will add =
the control with its corresponding tags like below :=20

in webform1.aspx
<%@ Register TagPrefix=3D"uc1" TagName=3D"WebUserControl1" =
Src=3D"WebUserControl1.ascx" %>

<uc1:WebUserControl1 id=3D"WebUserControl11" =
runat=3D"server"></uc1:WebUserControl1>


now in your code behind class for webform1 webform1.vb or webform1.cs if =
you code in c#
If you wanted to then reference this control in your code behind you =
need to declare it like any webcontrol.=20

Protected WithEvents WebUserControl11 As WebUserControl1

make sure that the id you provide when declaring it in your code behind =
class is the same as the control ID provided in our example above it is =
: webUserControl11
now you can easily access any of of its properties and members same way =
you would with any webControl using the controlName and period like:

webusercontrol11.Visible =3D False=20

I dont know if this is what you are after, otherwise you might need to =
provide me some sample code and go into details as to what you want to =
achieve. I'm having difficulty following the part where you mentioned "I =

Alessandro,

Removing all register directives I had and then dragging and dropping =
the control over the WebForm fixed the problem.

Thanks a lot.
