For this label:

In the code behind use (C#):

myLabel.Text = "my text";

Update (following updated question):

You do not need to use FindControl - that whole line is superfluous:

  Label myLabel = this.FindControl("myLabel") as Label;
  myLabel.Text = "my text";

Should be just:

  myLabel.Text = "my text";

The Visual Studio designer should create a file with all the server side controls already added properly to the class (in a RankPage.aspx.designer.cs file, by default).

You are talking about a RankPage.cs file - the way Visual Studio would have named it is RankPage.aspx.cs. How are you linking these files together?
