First, no BoundFields, must use TemplateField like this:

‘ ReadOnly=”true”>

‘>’>

Second, now that you gave the textbox, or any other control an ID, you can find it. However, it is tough to find. Below you can copy this CustomFindControl method, you pass it a control and it will search every control within that control to find the one you are looking for. I mainly just pass it the page and let it do its work. The call to that method looks like this:

TextBox txtColumnHeader1 = (TextBox)CustomFindControl(muvTemplateItem, “txtColumnHeader”);
txtColumnHeader1.Text = “”;

muvTemplateItem is the multiview, but it could just as easily been the page. Afetr you have the TextBox, or whatever, you can clear it out.

Like I said, kinda unclean, but it worked for me when I could not “do a GET ” on the page.

Here is the CustomFindControl method

private Control CustomFindControl(Control c, string strID)
{
Control conReturn = null;
foreach (Control x in c.Controls)
{
if (x.ID == strID)
{
conReturn = x;
break;
}
if (x.Controls.Count > 0)
{
conReturn = CustomFindControl(x, strID);
if (conReturn != null)
{
return conReturn;
}
}

}
return conReturn;
}

Thanks.

I think it will be just what I (and my team) need to transition from Notes dev to MS.

Thank you is an understatement.
