Remarks
Not all controls can be validated with a validation control. This class creates a collection of controls on the Web Forms page that can be associated with a validation control. This collection is commonly used in a designer to display a list of controls on the Web Forms page that can be associated with a validation control.
When creating your own validation control, you can provide the ability for the designer to display a list of controls that support validation controls. Simply add an attribute to the string property that represents the control to validate as follows:
[Visual Basic] <TypeConverter(GetType(ValidatedControlConverter))> _ Public Property ControlToValidate() As String Get // Add code to get the name of the control to validate. End Get Set // Add code to set the name of the control to validate. End Set End Property [C#] [TypeConverter(typeof(ValidatedControlConverter))] public string ControlToValidate { get { // Add code to get the name of the control to validate. } set { // Add code to set the name of the control to validate. } }
