create a macro using the .NET user control

API Questions
Dear all

Im sorry if i put this question in the wrong place because i don't know where can i put this question.

I want to use the .net user control in my macro ( instead of using the xslt file)

I read an article :http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/api-questions/5797-Contact-Form

and after that i do the following:

+ I write a user control (using the visual studio ) . get the binay (.dll files ) as well as the .ascx file.

+Put the *.dll in bin folder into the bin folder of the installed umbraco.

+Put the .ascx file into the usercontrols folder of the isntalled umbraco

Create a macro and browser to the ascx file

Use the macro in the master page
```
<umbraco:Macro ID="Macro5" Alias=" My.TestMacro"  runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>
```
But there is nothing occur.

Please help me.

Thank you for your patience.

Hi thantien,

Sounds weird!

Is the alias value well written?

Are you using a Web Deplyment project?

Could you post the ascx code?

I need more information...

Sincere regards,
Eduardo

hi karma

I use build--> public website (visual studio 2008 because i use umbraco 4.6.0 alpha) --> copy the *.dll in bin folder and the .ascx file

My user control is very simple:

the is only 1 button (named button1 )and 1 label ( named label1)

the code
```
public partial class BIDCContactForm : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }
    protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Label1.Text = "Hello you";
    }
}
```

Hi thantien,

Maybe the macro Alias is misspelled.
```
<umbraco:Macro ID="Macro5" Alias=" My.TestMacro"  runat="server">umbraco:Macro>
```
Use another Alias name like 'MyTestMacro':
```
<umbraco:Macro ID="Macro5" Alias="MyTestMacro"  runat="server">umbraco:Macro>
```
Also, take a look at the WIndows Event Viewer.

HTH

Regards,
Eduardo
