Hi

Maybe I am being stupid or this is a bug and I need some urgent help please.

I have a web user control with a multiview that has 2 views. I have 3 public
properties setup and one of the properties will be used to identify which
view to be set as an active view.

Then on the page I have the following Function that will return a web user
control and the id3 will be used to set the active view.

Private Function GetControl(ByVal id1 As Integer, ByVal id2 As Integer,
ByVal id3 As Integer) As UserControl
Dim ctrl As ASP.components_ctrl_ascx = LoadControl("~/components/ctrl.ascx")
ctrl.id1 = id1
ctrl.id2 = id2
ctrl.id3 = id3
Return ctrl
End Function

Then on the page I have the following code to load the controls to a
placeholder.

Me.plh1.Controls.Add(GetControl(id1, id2, id3))
Me.plh1.Controls.Add(GetControl(id4, id5, id6))

The id3 and id6 will be set as a different active view but the problem is
that I only get 1 control added to the page and that's the first one and I
don't understand why!!

If I remove the multiview control and the property that sets the active view
then the 2 controls are added to the placeholder without any problem!!

If this is not a bug and I am being stupid then can someone please tell me
what I am doing wrong and show me some code in how to fix this?!!

Thanks a lot
