Add ASP Controls to a Table Dynamically

Question

Right now I have an ASP Table. I can add rows and cells to this table just fine. What I would like to do, is instead of the cell just displaying text, I would like to add a control. For example a Button.

Right now, my first thought on how to do this would be just to put the <ASP:Button ... as the .Ttext attribute of the table cell. But my gut tells me this wont work. Further more, I probably couldn't add a function to handle the button click.

Can someone help point me in the right direction on how to achieve this?

You need to add the control to the table cell. Just call the Controls.Add method on the cell and add your control. Below is a brief sketch that should point you in the right direction.

        Button b = new Button();
        c.Controls.Add(b);
