empty field and I woulkd like the ellipsys that would allow me to navigate

Use ViewState to store your URL rather than a class-field.

Thanks I understanding but this should have no effect on my issue.
You seem to know a lot about server controls - If you could explian what I
am doing wrong and edit my code - this could be usefull to everyone else.
This is a rather arcane topic...
Thanks Gaurav.

Get
    Dim obj as object = ViewState("URL")
    If Not IsNothing(object) then
        Return CType(obj, string)
    end if
    Return String.Empty
End Get

Set(Value as string)
    ViewState("URL") = Value
End Set

Please do check that the VB.Net syntax is correct... I'm not that good in
VB.Net :-)

> Thanks Gaurav.

Always welcome.
