Asp.Net Programming :: Help with controls on page


	Help with controls on page I am trying to loop through all the controls on my webform to get it's ID property. My eventual goal is going to be to reset the text of specific contols. Here is a piece of the code I am using, that I found searching through Google: Dim control As Control For Each control In Me.Page.Controls Response.Write("<BR>" + control.ID) Next Unfortunately, all I get returned is the name of my form such as "frmIndex". Anyone have any idea or, prefered, an example of what I need to do? Thanks in advance Controls collection includes only direct children. You should loop recursively to reach every control. -- Eliyahu Goldin, Software Developer & Consultant Microsoft MVP [ASP.NET] http://msmvps.com/blogs/egoldin http://usableasp.net <gbjornh@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1181192649.707784.164030@q66g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... - Hide quoted text - >I am trying to loop through all the controls on my webform to get it's > ID property.

Do you have an example, or a link, on how to loop recursively thru the form?
