Passing data from one web user control to another in asp.net c#
Hi,
I am trying to pass the value of a selected droplist thats selected on one control to another control.
I want to pass CalendarSelectedDate, this variable changes three times on the page. Once on page load when it is set to the dateTimeNow, later on a click which activates method protected void Date_Selected(object sender, EventArgs e), and again on a button click which activates method public void DropDwnDateChanged(object sender, EventArgs e). For each of these i want the CalendarSelectedDate to be passed to my second control ( LargeCalenderViewControl)

Use QueryString parameters. This way you'll pass the calendar date through the address bar and when the new control is being loaded, it'll check to see if there is a date parameter and load it accordingly.
QueryStrings might be easier, but if you are using postbacks, that wont work.
You need to figure out what the Object Name is for your controls.
In your code view(.cs file), type out the id of one of your controls, it should show up in intellisense. Then, hover over it, it should tell you the name of the object.
For example, if you hover over an integer, it will say 'Struct System.Int32' so you know it is an integer
