Can't call a public method of a dynamically loaded WebUserControl

[dimmslider]

Hello all,

I'm having a little melt-down trying to work out how to call a method of a dynamically loaded control...

My setup is this:

Admin.aspx
CustomControl.ascx

Admin.aspx has the following code to load CustomControl.ascx:

UserControl UC = (UserControl)LoadControl("~/admin_custom_controls/howComments.ascx");

        modulesPlaceHolder.Controls.Clear();
        modulesPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(UC);

CustomControl.ascx has a method:

public void initiate()
    { 
      getComments("All");
            getUsers();
    }

What I'm trying to do, is call the initiate() method from the Admin.aspx
Tried everything, and trawled the web for hours!!!
Help! :)

Cast it into the type that it is, not UserControl. You should be able to access it then.

I'm a tad confused... What type can a WebUserControl be cast to if not UserControl?
:confused:
I'm calling the control to be displayed and the control has some internal logic, which is controlled using the interface on that control. It's just that I need to call one of it's public methods from the parent page as I'm about to display it...
