Um ... you can just call the property:
<asp:TextBox runat="server" id="tb1" />
<asp: Label runat="server" id="lb1" />
<asp:Button runat="server" id="btn1" Text="Show value" OnClick="ShowTextValue" />
Sub ShowTextValue(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal E AS EventArgs) Handles btn1.OnClick
lb1.Text = tb1.Text
End Sub
To get a ViewState value, just call its name:
ViewState("some value") = "Hello World"
tb1.text = ViewState("some value")
If you mean, you want to reference a control from a codebehind page, as previously noted, you can reference any element by its unique ID. Or, if that doesn't work, you can always use the FindControl method.
