How can i access value of datalist controls which generated at run time in ASP.NET - asp.net

Question

The datalist generated code at runtime: how can I access values of the datalist element after page postback?
void CreateDATELIST(Control container)
{
var st = settings.CustomPossition();
foreach (var item in settings.CustomPossition())
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.Columns.Add("Name");
dt.Columns.Add("Possition");
dt.Columns.Add("Production");
dt.Columns.Add("dpo");
dt.Columns.Add("WorkDay");
DataRow dr;
foreach (var users in item.Users)
{
dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["Name"] = users.Name;
dr["Possition"] = users.Position.Name;
dr["Production"] = users.DailyGoalAmount * (double)(users.WorkDays / 12;
dr["dpo"] = users.DailyGoalAmount;
dr["WorkDay"] = users.WorkDays;
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
dt.AcceptChanges();
}
DataList dataList = new DataList();
dataList.ItemTemplate = Page.LoadTemplate("Commnets.ascx");
container.Controls.Add(dataList);
dataList.DataSource = dt;
dataList.DataBind();
}
}

Answer 1

You can just subscribe to DataList's ItemDataBound event.
DataList dataList = new DataList();
dataList.ItemDataBound += dataList_ItemDataBound;
and in event handler:
void dataList_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e)
{
var item = e.Item.DataItem as DataRowView;
}

Answer 2

If you assign Id to your DataList created dynamically like following:
DataList dataList = new DataList();
dataList.ID = "dlstUser";
And then: change control ID in c.FindControl("lblName") with whatever control & ID you have in your template user control and use following code in button click or in whatever event where you want values of your datalist.
DataList dataList = pnlDataList.FindControl("dlstUser") as DataList;
foreach (DataListItem dli in dataList.Items)
{
ControlCollection controls = dli.Controls;
foreach (Control c in controls)
{
Label lblName = c.FindControl("lblName") as Label;
}
}
