Question

Is there a way to cast a user control as a specific user control so I have access to it's public properties? Basicly I'm foreaching through a placeholder's controls collection and I'm trying to access the user control's public properties.

foreach(UserControl uc in plhMediaBuys.Controls)
{
    uc.PulblicPropertyIWantAccessTo;
}

foreach(UserControl uc in plhMediaBuys.Controls) {
    MyControl c = uc as MyControl;
    if (c != null) {
        c.PublicPropertyIWantAccessTo;
    }
}
