accessing form from user control

[Elliott]

I have a RADGrid with update capability-the INSERT and UPDATE done through a user control.  I have a pair of checkboxes on the main form which affect the processing.  How do I pass the values of these checkboxes into the user control (or access them from the user control code behind)?

Hello Marianne Seggerman,

You can use the Page property of the user control to access the Web page that holds the grid instance:

MyPageClassName myPage = this.Page;

For more information about WebUserControl editing please review this help article:

Custom edit forms

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,

I added a pair of checkboxes to the user control and set them to the value of the checkboxes on the main page
