Problem in the XAML Textbox for XAML.Cs

Question

I have a XAML (Cadastro.xaml) where I did one TextBox and a PasswordBox and named them as txtCpf and txtSenha, until then without any problem.

When I’m gonna use them on Cadastro.xaml.cs, I can not and appears the error saying that:

"the name does not exist in the current context"

How do I declare in .cs both TextBox?

Answer 1

Maybe I declared the components wrong.

Below follows the correct way to name your components, using the property x:Name:

<TextBox x:Name="txtCpf" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="23" TextWrapping="Wrap" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="120"/>
<PasswordBox x:Name="txtSenha" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="120"/>

And in the code you can access them as follows:

string cpg = txtCpf.Text;
string password = txtSenha.Password;
