I think I knew what you need.
I was having the same problem last time, for each control loop work in
windows form but not web form. In web forms, you need to use a recursive
function to search thru all the levels. I'm not very sure how to explain it,
I will post a code that hope can help you here.

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

EnableTextboxes(Controls)

End Sub

Private Sub EnableTextboxes(ByVal col As ControlCollection)

If (col Is Nothing) Then

Return

End If

Dim c As Control

For Each c In col

If TypeOf c Is TextBox Then

CType(c, TextBox).Enabled = True

End If

ChangeTextboxes(c.Controls)

Next

End Sub

With this recursive function, it will search thru all levels of object, eg:
the texbox is inside a panel, a panel is inside a form
if you don't use recursive function, you only get those textboxes in the
form but not the panel.

HTH,
