Get access to parent control from user control - C#

Question

How do I get access to the parent controls of user control in C# (winform). I am using the following code but it is not applicable on all types controls such as ListBox.

Answer 1

If you want to get any parent by any child control you can use this code, and when you find the UserControl/Form/Panel or others you can call funnctions or set/get values:

Control myControl= this;
while (myControl.Parent != null)
{

    if (myControl.Parent!=null)
    {
        myControl = myControl.Parent;
        if  (myControl.Name== "MyCustomUserControl")
        {
            ((MyCustomUserControl)myControl).lblTitle.Text = "FOUND IT";
        }
    }

}
