hi,

I want to implement a custom property, which functions is: provide a input box to add list item and a repeater to render the list item. I want to use asp.net web user control to wrap the input box, add button and repeater. So I need add this user control to the custom property control. I have tried

this.Controls.Add(myusercontrol) in CreateEditControls(), but it didn't work. I can't see any content when I use this custom property in edit mode.

Hi, this works for me.

public MultiPageEdit usercontrol = new MultiPageEdit();
public override void CreateEditControls()
{
usercontrol = (MultiPageEdit)Page.LoadControl("~/somepath/MultiPageEdit.ascx");
Controls.Add(usercontrol);
}
