How to convert string variable to textbox variable?

[sagardeshmukh310]

Sir,

Following is my code

Textbox tb = (TextBox)Conver t.ToString(s) ;

In above code i want to pass value present in the string variable 's' to the 'tb' variable but i am getting following error message

"Cannot convert type 'string' to 'System.Web.UI. WebControls.Tex tBox"

Plz suggest me how to write this code.

Thanking You

Sagar.

Hi Sagar,

The problem is you are not specifying the text property of your textbox. I'm not a C# programmer but something like:

tb.text = s.ToString;

will probably do the trick.

I hope this helps,

If you are trying to assign a string value to a textbox so that the textbox will show the string in the typing area:

myTextBox.Text=mystringvalue;

For what you are appearntly trying to do:

tb.Text=s.ToString();

I want to use that string value in the textbox variable .

I want that value if string should be stored in textbox variable ..

Hi ,

u can't assign a string variable to textbox variable.
if u want to use that string value u should assign it to

string s="sagar";
TextBox t = new TextBox();
t.Text = s;
then use the t.Text as a variable
