  Inheriting a WebControls.Table Issue

  Aug 06, 2003 09:20 PM|LINK

  I think I'm missing something simple here, but for some reason I'm not figuring it out. I simply want to override some functions of a System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table - but I'm getting this error: The base class includes the field 'Table1', but its type (Store.TestTable) is not compatible with the type of control (System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table). Some sample snipped code below: TESTTABLE.ASPX

  <form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
  				
  		</form>

  TESTTABLE.ASPX.VB

  Public Class TestTable1
      Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
  
  #Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code "
  
      Protected WithEvents Table1 As JAStore.TestTable
      Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
          'Put user code to initialize the page here
  
      End Sub
  
  End Class
  

  TESTTABLE.VB (inheriting class)

  Public Class TestTable
      Inherits System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table
  
  End Class

  It looks to me like you added a normal WebControls.Table to your HTML code, but tried to cast it as your own table in the declaration.

  Agreed...So how do I add my own Store.Table to the HTML?

  You can't do that directly in the html. You either have to create an instance of your derived class and add it to the page dynamically, or you have to turn your derived class into a user control, which could then be added directly to the html. The former is probably the better option. AutoFed
