Can't find property EnableViewState in Try it out bulled 11, page 131

bjork · April 13th, 2012, 05:47 AM

In Try it out, page 131, bulled 11, about Label control in Design view, locate the property EnableViewState.
I can't find that property in the Labels control. I have activated the control in design view and pressed F4, to find the right property.

Have I missed something in the this Try it out?

And thanks for this super book!

Hi there,

Can you post the code for the page? The Label control definitely has a EnableViewState property, so something else must be off....

You're welcome. Good to hear you like it.

Hope this is the right code I post.
It is properly something I haven't done correctly in the Try it out.
And thanks for answering my question.

That looks fine to me. I copied and pasted that code into my site and then I see the EnableViewState property show up in the Properties Grid (see attached image).

Are you sure you selected the right control in Design View and are looking at the right list / Properties Grid?

Cheers,

Imar

I was in the wrong property, <TD>. Should have been in Label1's property.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Have a nice weekend.

Thanks; you too, and thanks for the follow up.
