Populate Textboxes?

I am trying to populate a textbox with a random number and for the life of me I cant get the textbox to populate... any help?

Sub Page_Load()

Dim oRandom As New Random()
Dim iNum As Integer
iNum = oRandom.Next(1, 100000)

textbox1.text = iNum

end sub

I run the page and the textbox is still blank.Is the textbox standalone in the page, or is it nested in a formview?

Can you put anything in the textbox, i.e. textbox.text = "something"
no its not letting me put textbox1.text ="anything" ... I do have it between Form tags...

Im lost
Is it supposed to populate on page load? If so do you have te call inside an if not isportback...
yea I would like for it to populate on the page load
In that case, on the page load sub, add the following:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

If Not IsPostBack Then
'Put all your page load stuff in here including the textbox piece
Dim oRandom As New Random()
Dim iNum As Integer
iNum = oRandom.Next(1, 100000)

textbox1.text = iNum

End If

End Sub
bah Im an idiot... lol... thanks...
