Locate a control in asp:repeater header with VB

December 9, 2011 Chuck Family, VB.Net, Visual Basic

I am using a repeater to build a list of items. I am using the header as the input area and, if the item exists, I am putting the item into the repeater. If the item does not exist, I am displaying a message in the textbox where the item sku was placed. To find the textbox in the header, just use:


Dim tb as TextBox = TryCast(asprepeaterID.Item.FindControl("headerTextBoxID"), TextBox)
