  I'm working with the RadToolBar, encapsulated within a RadPane, encapsulated within a RadSplitter;
  
  The goal is to programmatically access a RadButton, which is encapsulated within an <ItemTemplate> section of a RadToolBarButton;
  
  The code section is displayed below;
  
  Thanks in advance for any insight;
  
  

  <telerik:RadSplitter>   

    

  <telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane5" Runat="server" Width="100%" BackColor="White" BorderColor="Transparent" BorderWidth="0px" Visible="false" Scrolling="None">

    

       <telerik:RadToolBar ID="RadToolBar3" Runat="server" Height="26px" Width="100%" BackColor="Transparent" BorderColor="Transparent" Visible="false" onbuttonclick="RadToolBar3_ButtonClick">

                      <Items>  

                          <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server" Value="TemplateTextBox" CommandName="rcbCustomers" >    

                             <ItemTemplate>  

                                  <asp:Label Text="Customer" runat="server" ></asp:Label>

                                  <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbCustomer" runat="server" Text="Customers"></telerik:RadComboBox>

                                  <asp:Label ID="Group" Text="Group" runat="server" ></asp:Label>

                                  <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbGroup" runat="server" Text="Group"></telerik:RadComboBox>

                                  <asp:Label ID="Provider" Text="Provider" runat="server" ></asp:Label>

                                  <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbProvider" runat="server" Text="Provider"></telerik:RadComboBox>

                                   <asp:Label ID="Location" Text="Location" runat="server" ></asp:Label>

                                  <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbLocation" runat="server" Text="Location"></telerik:RadComboBox>

    

                                  <telerik:RadButton ID="rbViewReport" runat="server" Text="View Report" CommandName="View Report"></telerik:RadButton>

    

                             </ItemTemplate>  

                          </telerik:RadToolBarButton>  

                          <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server">   

                          </telerik:RadToolBarButton>  

                     </Items>  

                  </telerik:RadToolBar>

    

               <rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer7" runat="server" Width="100%" PageCountMode="Actual" Visible="false" ></rsweb:ReportViewer>

    

          </telerik:RadPane>

    

  </telerik:RadSplitter>

  Hello Steven,
  
  Try the following code.
  C#:
  

  protected void RadToolBar3_ButtonClick(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolBarEventArgs e)

  {

    RadToolBarItem item = RadToolBar3.FindItemByValue("TemplateTextBox");

    RadButton btn = (RadButton)item.FindControl("rbViewReport");

  }

  Update:
  
  

  RadButton rbViewReport = (RadButton)RadToolBar3.FindItemByValue("TemplateTextBox").FindControl("rbViewReport");

  
  Utilizing the above code snippet in the Page_Load event, a breakpoint is hit in the C# - based on a click of the RadButton;
  
  The next question is to how best to determine programmatically, if the Page_Load event takes place as a result of the RadButton being clicked;   
  
  
  Thanks for the reply, and I implemented the code suggestion;
  
  I set a breakpoint within the C# for the RadToolBar3_ButtonClick, and ran the application;
  
  However, if I run the application in debug mode, the breakpoint is not hit;
  
  Might this be related to the fact that the RadToolBar3 is nested within a RadPane, which is nested within a RadSplitter?
  
  Best regards

  Hello Steven,
  
  Try setting AutoPostBack as true for the RadToolBar.
