I have a Master page with property for ErrorMsgs. From my aspx pages I
can set that property resulting in a popup.

Whats the best way to have that same result from a user control. Say I
get an error in my usercontrol and I want to trip that popup in the
masterpage?

Thanks for any help or information.

Partial Class xxx
Inherits System.Web.UI.MasterPage

End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
ErrorLabel.Text = value
End Set
End Property


But Page.Master.ErrorMsg is say it's not a member of
