You should be able to edit it with no problem, because that's what I have
been doing for years

When I reference it I use

protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label lblname; (for example)

From that point onwards it is accessible

You could always switch to .Net 2.0, no need to reference controls on your
form, they are all accessible in the code

Hi,

A Visual Studio.NET question...

If I drag a label web form control on to the design surface then go to the
"code behind" page I can programme it and all is well. However, if I add
one in the HTML screen and then add references to it in the "code behind"
page I get errors. Is VS doing things that aren't apparent in Designer mode
or is there a way to get it done by hand and it work properly?

I'm getting a bit frustrated with the designer, I have more control by hand
coding, hence the question.

Thanks in advance,

Craig
