What is the best way to examine nested controls.

I have several web server controls that are nested inside a datalist control. What is the best way to programmatically access those controls and their properties?

In C#, you can do this to reiterate over the list of controls:

Code:

---

foreach (Control c in myDataList.Controls)
{
  Reponse.Write(c.ToString());
}

That will display the type of evey child control to the datalist. If you're looking for a certain control, you can search for it by type.
