Hi,

I have a  repeater that is assign an object and cranks out a bunch of
checkboxes.
That part works fine. In the object I am also passing over the values to
switch the checkboxes on and off.

How do I do that after the fact? I have tried looping thu after the
datasource is assigned but that doen't work.
And also how do I access each of the textbox controls by name if I don't
know what the name of the control is?

   rptr.DataSource = _myobject;
    rptr.DataBind();


    foreach (RepeaterItem ri in rptr.Items)
    {
     CheckBox cbx = (CheckBox)ri.FindControl("ctl14_Checkbox_1");

      if (cbx !=null)
      {
       cbx.Checked = true;
      }

    }

No, you can't do that way before the page is not rendered immediately after
DataBind call.

Instead of you should handle ItemDataBound event of repeater and access its
item data.

That's one piece of the puzzle thnx.
But how do I reference an individual checkbox when I do not know what it's
name is yet?
