Hi,

I have a problem with finding a control inside a formview in my usercontrol.
I always get a null reference exception.

complete this task?

I have a usercontrol with the following controls

<portal:mojoPanel ID="mp1" runat="server" ArtisteerCssClass="art-Post" RenderArtisteerBlockContentDivs="true">
<asp:Panel ID="pnlWrapper" runat="server" CssClass="art-Post-inner panelwrapper GuestBook">
  <portal:ModuleTitleControl EditText="Edit" EditUrl="~/GuestBook/Backend/GuestbookEdit.aspx"
   runat="server" ID="TitleControl" />
  <portal:mojoPanel ID="MojoPanel1" runat="server" ArtisteerCssClass="art-PostContent">
     <div id="content">
     <asp:FormView ID="fvWerkgever" runat="server" DataKeyNames="Oid"
      DataSourceID="xpWerkgever" DefaultMode="Insert" ondatabinding="fvWerkgever_DataBinding"
                        oninit="fvWerkgever_Init">
      <InsertItemTemplate>
      <asp:DropDownList ID="cbxBranche" ClientIDMode="Static" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList>
     </InsertItemTemplate>
     </asp:FormView>
     <dx:XpoDataSource ID="xpWerkgever" runat="server"
      TypeName="AenV.Benefitsplein.Business.CRM.Werkgever">
     </dx:XpoDataSource>
   </portal:mojoPanel>
</asp:Panel>
</portal:mojoPanel>

I would like to add items on runtime to the cbxBranche (pageload)

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           
            moduleSettings = ModuleSettings.GetModuleSettings(this.ModuleId);
            LoadSettings();
            PopulateLabels();
            PopulateControls();
            //if (moduleSettings["Captcha"].Equals("false"))
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                setComboBoxen()
            }
        }

        private void setComboBoxen()
        {
            DropDownList dl = fvWerkgever.FindControl("cbxBranche") as DropDownList;
            ListItem item = new ListItem("Nieuw", "-1");           
            dl.Items.Add(item);
        }

How can i find this control?

Greetings Patrick
