Hi, In which event you have placed your code? If in item databound then do you have a check condition as follows If (e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Footer) Then Dim mControl as Control mControl=gridTest.findcontrol("chkFootNote") the result is mControl is nothing If (Not mControl Is Nothing) then ...... it have to be here!!!.... else ' it goes here ...... ;>( endif End if Still if you have problem, can you post your code. Regards Ram

hi try this out
```
CheckBox mControl =  (CheckBox)gridTest.findcontrol("chkFootNote");
```
think you have to use the Ctype method for vb now you can use all the normal functions for the checkbox. (if mControl.Checked ==true) best regards, Stefan J.A.

in HTML page I use the following codes: when user click the checkbox --> oncheckchanged then call the "SelectAdd" function .. the selectadd function made in VB code .. Public Sub SelectAdd(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim mControl As Control Dim mHasControl As Boolean Dim myDataGridItem As DataGridItem Dim chkAdd As System.Web.UI.WebControls.CheckBox mHasControl = gridRights.HasControls() mControl = gridRights.FindControl("chkAddAll") If (Not mControl Is Nothing) Then ABCMessage("control exist") For Each myDataGridItem In gridRights.Items chkAdd = myDataGridItem.FindControl("chkAdd") If chkAdd.Enabled = True Then chkAdd.Checked = False End If Next Else ABCMessage("no contriol ") End If End Sub I look forward to get the best solution from you .. many hanks in advance Best Regards Lucrecia

hi you must remember to use the Ctype function. becuse you can't convert the control to a checkbox control without stating what type of control it is :) like in c# (CheckBox)myDataGridItem.FindControl("chkAdd") Stefan
