I get an "The type 'System.Web.UI.UserControl' has no event

[Michel]

Hi all,


I just created a new usercontrol, which basicly display's a
dropdowlist.
For this control, I created the a new SelectedIndexCh anged event to
raise the SelectedIndexCh anged event of the dropdowlist to the parent.

This all runs fine, but every time I open a page which contains my
control, I get an "The type 'System.Web.UI. UserControl' has no event
named 'SelectedIndexC hanged'" on the line (in the parent) where I hook
the event :
this.mycontrol. SelectedIndexCh anged += new
System.EventHan dler(this.mycon trol_SelectedIn dexChanged);

Anyone who has an idea why?


Thanks,

M.

Michel,

It looks like myControl is a reference to the base type, UserControl,
and not to your type. Otherwise, the error would give your type name. Are
you sure that you are trying to add the event handler to a reference of the
correct type?

Hope this helps.

Re: I get an &quot;The type 'System.Web.UI. UserControl' has no event

Hi Nicholas,

I've been thinking about that too, but I have no idea what could be
wrong.

I dragged the control onto the page in the design, and added a
declaration for my web user control in the code behind :

protected MyControlDropDo wn mycontrol;

In the InitializeCompo nent I put the line on which he say's their is a
problem.

this.mycontrol. SelectedIndexCh anged += new
System.EventHan dler(this.mycon trol_SelectedIn dexChanged);

The strange part is that I can run without a problem. Only when I open
the html page on which I put the control, I get this message.
