If your links are in master page then you need to find those controls from Master page and then hide them.

Try:

C#

LinkButton lb = this.Master.FindControl("myHelpLink") as LinkButton;
if(lb != null)
  lb.Visible = false;

I have a confusion. If the number of links are not defined then at that condition what we'll have to do? Should we go for "Role Based Dynamic Menu" or not?

Depends. One can hide static menu item links based on roles too!

Dynamic creation as it's own advantages and disadvantages. One has to evaluate and then go for an option.

Hi,

Work with role based dynamic menu generation from database. It'll solve your problem.
