Code Behind & Variables!

[Adam Knight]

Hi,



Can I use variables declared in a code behind file in a .aspx file?

If so, what needs to be done to make these variables available?



If I am using a .ascx file instead of an .aspx, does this have any impact?



Responses are appreciated.


Cheers,

Adam

Yes. They need to be declared protected or public.

Since codebehind is simply a base class to the ASPX or ASCX, as long as members
are marked protected they are visible to the derived class.

As Marina and Brock have answered, yes you can...it's merely an
accessibility issue. The point of my reply is to ask why you want to?
There are certainly cases where you have to, but as a general rule I'd say
it's good to avoid this if possible.
