I'm using the master page for a single post back operation to another page
and i'm having trouble finding how to get a previous master page textbox.
Note: both pages use the same masterpage.
this is what iv'e tried so far but this does not fire.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (PreviousPage != null)
{
tbTrepID.Text =
((TextBox)PreviousPage.NamingContainer.FindControl("tbTrepID")).Text;
}
}

(i''ll be asking a lot of these, but I find C# totally way cooler than vb
and there''s no go''n back!!!)
thanks (as always)

I am not sure of the precise method to do this. Perhaps

PreviousPage.Master.FindControl("textBoxName")

You may have to bubble the information down to the actual page before
submit, as I am not sure what information is sent to the next page.

C# is more concise, which is what I like most about it, although the IDE
does finish things for you in VB.
