Accessing hidden controls on ascx page

asp.net building controls:

I have a hidden control
<input id="FieldSortOrder" type="hidden" name="FieldSortOrder"
runat="server"> in a ascx page. I want to store some value in this
control in the code behind page.

FieldSortOrder.Value = "xyz"

I am getting compilation errors - 'FieldSortOrder' is not declared.

The same thing is working good on aspx. how can it be done on ascx?

Thanks.

Are you trying to access the control from within the ASCX code behind, or
from within the Page's code behind?
If you're trying to access it from the Page's code behind, this should help:
