NamingContainer null during page lifecycle

[TS]

I am declaratively settting value of custom control in aspx page:
<ctrl:MaskedEditTextBox ID="mskClient_FullPhone"
PropertyID="Client_FullPhone" runat="server" ReadOnly="true"
>929-302-2093</ctrl:MaskedEditTextBox>

This control has a Text property and in side its setter, i am calling ensure
childControls, which creates my child controls in which one of them tries to
access NamingContainer but it and many other properties inherited from
Control are all throwing null exceptions

When in life cycle is it OK to access this?

What options do i have when declaratively setting values like this?

thanks!!!

Hi,

basically Load event is when page and controls should've been loaded. If you
expect postback loading to happen also before, then it would be
LoadComplete.
