I've been searching for 2 days for a way to generically implement User Controls, as well as pass them strongly typed data. I'd first tried introducing an interface. That solved the first part but not the second. Your solution works well with both! P.S. I haven't yet tackled the issue of transferring user entered data from the User Control back to the form but hope to solve this part soon too. Aloha Steven!

The only possible solutions I can think of off the top of my head are revert to reflection, have a horrible case statement to construct the relevant type or try and abstract all of the UserControls to a common interface.

Currently i have a dynamically loaded usercontrol and will need to be able to pass parameters to the usercontrol pending on user selected choices preceding the loading of the usercontrol. Data.uControl = LoadControl(core.Type.tostring & ".ascx") .... Dim par As Control = Me.Parent par.Controls.Add(Data.uControl) What if i didnt know explicitely what the usercontrol was before runtime.

Just rename it, or tell it to open with zip/winrar or whatever you use. Youll then find the sln + code Just a note, the extensionless file in the zip is really a compressed file too.
