hi srikant! Because the access modifier of control is as the most restricted access is private, but the default is protected. so you are not able to access the control in another class but if you want to access you just have to access by class like : if you hv a grid and you want to access grid to another class so just have to do that following : let you hv two class, class A and class B and control is in class A but you hv to access in class B make a function in class B like public void BindGrid(GridView Grd) { --//your logic for grid bind goes here } and in class A access Class B function like: class b=new b(); b.BindGrid("Your grid name goes here")

your idea is not up to the mark. Calling a method by its obj is superb. But can we have access of controls in another class ?

Normally you won't able to access the controls in others class. Because there is a .designer.cs file for every aspx page. If you open that you can see that all controls are defined there. That is why you are able to access in your actual class not other classes. If you need it forcefully then here is the steps: Step 1: create a class which inherits from System.Web.UI.Page // This is another class(as per you) public partial class BI : System.Web.UI.Page { public void test() { btnDisplay.Text = ""; } } Step 2: Add code in .designer.cs file also like below: public partial class BI { /// /// btnDisplay control. /// /// /// Auto-generated field. /// To modify move field declaration from designer file to code-behind file. /// protected global::System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button btnDisplay; }
