Recursive Method to find control in complex page

-
Today I'm going to show you a simple method to find a control (Textbox, Dropdown, Label) in a complex Page where default findControl method is not useful. Using this method you can identify the control easily and it's recursive method so the LOC is few. enjoy it.

     /// <summary>  
     /// Find a control when Root control is known  
     /// </summary>  
     /// <param name="rootControl">Instance of the Root control</param>  
     /// <param name="controlToFind">Name of the control to find</param>  
     /// <returns></returns>  
     private Control FindControl(Control rootControl, string controlToFind)  
     {  
       return rootControl.ID == controlToFind ? rootControl :  
       (from Control control in rootControl.Controls select this.FindControl(control, controlToFind)).FirstOrDefault(t => t != null);  
     }




hmmm That's all.simple huh. happy coding and have a nice day.

DocumentFormat.OpenXml. you can download this dll from here .        2. WindowsBase okay now we are half there. now our project is ready to welcome the OpenXML. so let start coding and make some application.       so now we need to add a class called ExcelUtilities to put our common method which we are going to  use every time. so let's go and create that class and add those common methods and don't forget to add these namespaces t...
