I have created a repeater with a label inside

ASP.NET

asp:Repeater ID="RepeaterStrongestSkillsMax2" runat="server">
                      <ItemTemplate>
                         <asp:Label ID="lbl" runat="server" Visible="True"></asp:Label>
                         
                       </ItemTemplate> 
                       
                        

                    </asp:Repeater>

Not i am tring to foreach a listbox and add the value from the listbox to the repeater label

C#

foreach (var relevantSkillsStrongest in ListBoxRelevantSkillForMission.Items)
            {

                

                var lbl = (Label)RepeaterStrongestSkillsMax2.FindControl("lbl");
                

                string valueTextBox = relevantSkillsStrongest.ToString();
                int indexOf = valueTextBox.IndexOf("-", StringComparison.Ordinal);
                string value = valueTextBox.Substring(0, indexOf - 1);
                lbl.Text = value + " ";


               

                RepeaterStrongestSkillsMax2.DataSource = relevantSkillsStrongest;
                RepeaterStrongestSkillsMax2.DataBind();



            }
        }

Solution 1

You can not directly find control from Repeater You have to iterate to RepearterItem and find control from it.

C#

foreach(RepeaterItem item in RepeaterStrongestSkillsMax2.Items){
var label = item.FindControl("lbl") as Label; //Find control from RepeaterItem
label.Text = "Your value";
}
