WebControl type not compatiable with the type of Control???2/14/2004 8:36:18 AM

0

Hi,

Iam trying to modify the IBuySpy Portal application so that it uses FreeTextBox instead of the normal TextBox. I replaced TextBox instance, in EditHtml.ascx, with FreeTextBox. I have also, changed the id to DesktopText.

However, when I try editing html, I get the following error:

The base class includes the field 'DesktopText', but its type (System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox) is not compatible with the type of control (FreeTextBoxControls.FreeTextBox).

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

the code behind is expecting a textbox - you need to change the codebehind declaration to expect a freetextbox control and recompile the app

How did you change the codebehind to make it work?

Switching to design mode when editing the ascx/aspx will sometimes work. It might not happen automatically with custom controls, so you need to look in your vb code and find where it is declaring the controls. This section is usually at the top of the page, and you might have to expand the #Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code " and edit it in there. Look for something along these lines:

Protected WithEvents MyTextBox As System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox

I found that and I have tried the following to no avail.


protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.FreeTextBox DesktopText;
protected System.Web.UI.FreeTextBoxControls.FreeTextBox DesktopText;

What am I missing?

The System.Web.UI namespace does not contain those controls. Have you added a reference to the dll in your project? In the Solution Explorer, righ-click References, then choose Add Reference. Browse to your bin folder, and find the dll for the freetextbox controls. After you have added the reference, Intellisense should kick in when you start typing in your cs file. My guess is you need it to be this way:

protected FreeTextBoxControls.FreeTextBox DesktopText;
