how to loop throught all label and button controls of myPage

I would like to loop throught all label and button controls of myPage and modifie their text property (in fact I want to translate the text depending on the language of the user).

I tried this :

VB Code:

For Each myControl As Control In Page.Controls
                Dim test As String = myControl.ID
                ListBox1.Items.Add(myControl.ID)
            Next

but this does not give me the list of all controls.
I thought that I could loop through all controls, test for each if it is a control or button and then change the property .text to a new value depending on their old value.

Would to nice if anybody could give me a littel help...

Thank you in advance!

You will need a recursive function.

Here is what you need.

Code:

---

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        Me.ListBox1.Items.Clear()
        For Each ctl As Control In Me.Controls
            GetControls(ctl)
        Next

    End Sub

    Private Function GetControls(ByVal ctl As Control)
        For Each ct As Control In ctl.Controls
            If ct.GetType Is GetType(Label) Then
                Dim lbl As Label
                lbl = CType(ct, Label)

                Me.ListBox1.Items.Add("ID:" & lbl.ID & " Text:" & lbl.Text)
                lbl.Text = "New Text"

            End If

            If ct.Controls.Count > 0 Then
                GetControls(ct)
            End If
        Next

    End Function

juste perfect - exactly what I was looking for ... and even prepared for consumption. I had nothing to do.

Thank you very much!
