hi Steve,
most probably u r creating the control items in each post back round trip to
the server...
pls read on "IsPostBack" in ASP.NET...
u can easily fix it.
try to put a break point in the page load and see whether the create items
section is execute all the time.
u can use like this..
if(!IsPostBack)
{
// assign items here. so it will create only once. not in the post back
round trips..
}
hope this helps,
CMA
