Can you show the fragment of the code from where you are trying to set the visibility of the object?

Take any controls, there is nothing called SetVisible in .NET.
Only Visible is there. For example,

ASP

<asp:button id="btn" runat="server" text="Click Me !!" visible="True" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

Or in code behind,

C#

btn.Visible = false;

And the naming convention for visibility you've provided that is similar to Java. So mind that :)

It would be stupid to use methods for states, if properties exist, right? :-)
There is also IsVisible. I would not talk about "any controls", but in ASP.NET it's "Visible". (Voted 4.)
