To work with dynamic controls and to create them is a lot of work. All you said in your post can also be done by just typing that structure in the ASPX page and giving the relevant elements an runat="server" to make them server controls. The button should be an asp:Button and the textboxes should be asp:TextBox to make it easier to reference them.

@TheLearnedOne: it might be that you misinterpreted the last comment of "eteran", here's my reading of the same:

>> "so we can't use your first way". My "first way" was the suggestion to use a gridview.
>> "we have to add html as it is". That was what I showed as an example. The asker here confirms that he's going for my approach, which is shown in the comment of http:#24190323

And then forgot to grade... ;-)
