Create Controls at Runtime (VB.net 2002)

In VB 6 it was a no brainer to create new controls at runtime, how do I do this with VB.net to create an ASP.net page?

After creating the controls, you have to add them to a collection (either Page, Panel, or PlaceHolder objects).

Dim lbl as new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label
With lbl
.ID = “lblTest”
.Text = “My New Label”
End With
Me.Controls.Add(lbl)

That worked perfectly! I dimmed the control as an array added a for/next loop and I am set.
