Message: [QUOTE="Peter S., post: 4255668"] This is driving me crazy, I am trying to build a custom dropdownlist that when rendered also displays a listbox next to it. I am going to use the listbox as a repository for items that are selected when accessing the dropdown. I did override CreateControlCollection() and returned "new ControlCollection(this);". However when I add controls (by overriding CreateChildControls()) I do not see them on the webpage. Is there any other magic that needs to be done? I have created other custom controls without a problem. BTW, I want to keep dropdownlist as the base class because my page has a number of these controls and I want to be able to configure the list via the aspx page rather than programatically. Any information would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Peter [/QUOTE]
