Programmatically create table, enter values in it, retrieve the entire contents

Question

When I go to parse through the table, all the stuff I created programmatically is missing...

I must be forgetting something so that it's losing all the stuff that I built programmatically (I am only getting the shell of the table).

Any ideas?

If I put the table in a Session object after I programmatically create it then it works except all the values the user enters will not be there obviously.

  protected void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           SaveMainGrid(tblCC);

           // SaveMainGrid((System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table)Session["tblMain"]);
        }

  private void SaveMainGrid(Control control)
        {
            foreach (Control ctrl in control.Controls)
            {
                if (ctrl is RadNumericTextBox)
                {
                    RadNumericTextBox t = ctrl as RadNumericTextBox;
                }
                else
                {
                    if (ctrl.Controls.Count > 0)
                    {
                        SaveMainGrid(ctrl);
                    }
                }
            }
        }

This is likely another case of asp.net lifecycle. If you dynamically create controls, they aren't going to be available in the viewstate unless you recreate them. Even then, I don't know that the values would be persisted.

(I think they might. It's been a while since I fought this particular Web Forms quark.) Check this question out for more info.

Why are you creating the table dynamically? Can you use an asp:GridView?
