Hi All
I have a page in which the controls (Checkboxes, Textboxes, and Dropdown List) are created programmatically. There is a Button, by clicking it I need to separate the Textboxes and the conditions from the Dropdown List.

My problem is that is why whenever the program is not running then there is no existence of the above said controls that is why when ever I am trying to run the code, the compiler is sending some errors like this: - The CheckBox1 does not exist in the current context.

How can I over come this problem?

I shall be highly obliged if I get any type of suggestion from any one.

With Regards.

well.. the compiler is rigth.. you haven't got that controls yet.

Since you are creating that controls on runtime, you will have to find a method to call them without knowing there Id. For example you could use findcontrols to find the one you are looking for and cast that object to the specific type.

You create controls when you really not know how many of them will you need or in cases that the controls match an external data sources. If you know that the control will be there always and the name of it, then you just not create it on runtime and put it on the form at design time.

Hi HTH
Glad to get your reply. Thanks for it.

i am sending you the algo left by me. Can you give some suggestion for the parf:-
for (i=0;i<x;i++)
{
if(checkboxi.checked==true)
{

Do some work with this code.
}
}
 of the Algo.

Algo:-
Button click
{
    for (i=0;i<x;i++)
             {
if(checkboxi.checked==true)
{

Store the name field corresponding to the checkbox field into an array.
Store the filter condition corresponding to the checkbox field into an separate array.
}
           }
Sql Query:- Will be generate programmatically:-
 Sql Query:- ASelect[fetch the array element and separate these by , by a loop] from table name(i.e. SQLDataSource1(which can be insert in GUI mode))[fetch the filter condition from the 2nd array the element will be separated by ,]

• Declare a seasonal variable and store the resultant string into it.

Call the next page.
}


Next Page:-

{
    Get the data from the seasonal variable and print it.
}

Hi gonzalo
I need your help in the area where the code will check the checkbox is checked or not. i am not getting how can I do that part?

mmm.. excuse me.. but you are trying to read every checkbox using
checkboxi where i is part of the name of the checkbox??
First of all since this is asp.net the control will render to the page with the id that you give to it when you create it.
Second you can't reference a control that way since the compiler will think that the name of the control is checkboxi and will not know that that particular i should be a number since looks like part of the name.
the best aproach you have it's to do a findcontrol where you can do something like "checkbox" & i.tostring and it will resolve the control ok.
