It seems asp.net validation controls do not work because references to controls that are inside RadToolbar do not work.

Included is my example, for which I get the error:

Unable to find control id 'lblNumSKU' referenced by the 'ControlToCompare' property of 'CompareValidator2'.

Hi John Davis,

Indeed validator controls require the target control to be in the same INamingContainer. For example you cannot have the validator in your page whilst the target control is inside an user control.
You could place the validator inside the button template as well. I hope this is a feasible workaround.

Thank you.  I tried putting the validators in a separate toolbar and in the same toolbar containing the controls referenced by the CompareValidator. I still get the error message.  Because the referenced controls are in different templates I don't see how to put the validator in "the same template" as those references.

Hi John Davis,

You should put the validators in the same button as the control to validate.

All the best,

Thank you.  I tried  putting the validator in the TemplateButton that has the 

ControlToValidate.  But I still get "Cannot find" for the ControlToCompare.  In my toolbar theControlToValidate  and ControlToCompare must each be in a different TemplateButton. 

Do you know of an example that shows CompareValidator working for 2 controls, each of which is inside a different TemplateButton ?  Or do you know an example that achieves the same result using javascript instead of CompareValidator ?

Hello John Davis,

The ControlToCompare must be in the same INamingContainer (toolbar button) as well. If putting both controls in the same button is not viable you could try using the CustomValidator control.

I hope this helps,
