I'm trying to access a hiddenfield on a parent page from a webcontrol. The below works but I want to do it in one line. \[code\]HiddenField hiddenFieldPid = (HiddenField)this.Parent.FindControl("HiddenFieldPid");hiddenFieldPid.Value = http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15561818/ListBox_JobPositions.SelectedValue;\[/code\]Not really sure why this doesn't work but I don't get the Value property appear in intellisense when I do this:\[code\](HiddenField)this.Parent.FindControl("HiddenFieldPid").NOOPTIONFORVALUEHERE = ListBox_JobPositions.SelectedValue;\[/code\]
