Hi there,

You might be interested in the following thread at asp.net:

http://www.asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=1&PostID=4692

It deals with various ways to use templates / visual inheritance. It's 
quite a long story (over 9 pages), but it will provide you with a lot of 
ideas and samples. I have been using slight variations on the themes 
presented in this thread in my projects. Take some time to read it, follow 
a few links and check out the sites of a few contributors to get a good 
feel of their ideas.

Cheers,

Imar
