foreach (RadPanelItem PanelItem in RadPanelBar1.GetAllItems())
{
RadTextBox txtAge = RadPanelBar1.FindControl("txtAge") as RadTextBox;
RadTextBox txtWeight = RadPanelBar1.FindControl("txtWeight") as RadTextBox;
health.Age = Convert.ToInt32(txtAge.Text);
health.weight = Convert.ToInt32(txtWeight.Text);
}

the value of txtAge and txtWeight is always null even if i gave different value in runtime

Hi Priya,

You should first find the item which contains the textbox and then use FindControl method as it's demonstrated here.

This is a bit of a crosspost from the ASP.NET forum (where I erroneously posted it in the first place)

Using an item template makes the process in the demos (and the helpfile) a bit hard to follow.
This is because in the walkthrough for placing controls in an itemtemplate we are required to add a radpanelitem with no text.

So this code, as recommended in the demo and helpfile:
Dim txtbox as textbox = DirectCast(RadPanelBarName.FindItemsByValue("RadPanelBarValue").FindControl("ControlID"), textbox)
will not work


I have found that it works if you add the reference to the item containing the template first, such as:
Dim txtbox as textbox = DirectCast(RadPanelBarName.FindItemsByValue("RadPanelBarValue").Items(0).FindControl("ControlID"), textbox)



Note where I reference "Items(0)" and call its FindControl method.
