Re: Getting a control's filename and location

"this.GetType().Name" would give you the name of the ascx file with the "."
replaced "_". If the source ascx is MyControl.ascx then "this.GetType
().Name" would give you "MyControl_ascx". I am not sure if you can find the
actual source path because of shadow copying.
