I am using a templated slide control. For each of the big items, I want to add a user control that I have created. I have added the control reference to the aspx page but cannot get the control to generate when the slide control is created.

I have tried creating a panel instead of the control and then putting the control on after the databind but that was not successful either.

Private Function CreateDataSource() As DataTable
Dim table As New DataTable()
table.Columns.Add("bigitem", GetType(String))
table.Columns.Add("thumbnail", GetType(String))
table.Columns.Add("title", GetType(String))
table.Columns.Add("summary", GetType(String))
table.Columns.Add("link_text", GetType(String))


table.Rows.Add("", "whatis_small.gif", "What is ?", "?????!")
table.Rows.Add("<uc1:LearnMore ID='uc1' runat='server' />", "learnmore_small.gif", "Learn more ", "????????????")
table.Rows.Add("", "gettingready_small.gif", "Getting ready ", "????????")
table.Rows.Add("", "needhelp_small.gif", "Need help ?", "?????????????")

Return table
End Function 'CreateDataSource

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Slide1.DataSource = CreateDataSource()
Slide1.DataBind()

End Sub 'Page_Load


<BigItemTemplate>
<div style="width:675px;height:300px;border:2px solid #000">
<%# Eval("bigitem")%>
</div>
<div>
<p style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; color: #000">
<h3><%#Eval("summary")%></h3>
</p>
</div>
</BigItemTemplate>
