If you have a toolbar item that looks like this:
<eo:ToolBarItem Type="Custom">
<CustomItem>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtStartDate" runat="server" Enabled="false"
style="vertical-align:middle; font-size: 8pt;" Columns="12"
/>
</CustomItem>
</eo:ToolBarItem>

And you have an asp.net custom validator:
<asp:CustomValidator ID="vldStartDate" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtStartDate"
ErrorMessage="Invalid Date or Range" OnServerValidate="vldStartDate_ServerValidate"
ValidateEmptyText="True" />

How do you reference the txtStartDate control? If you leave that attribute in, it can't find the control because it's embedded inside another control instead of being part of the page...

Hi,

You can not. You can use ToolBarItem.CustomItemInstance.FindControl to find the textbox in your server side code though.

Thanks
