I am trying to reference a variable within my MasterPage but I am receiving errors.

I have tried

<%@ MasterType" %>

which gives the following error:

Compiler Error Message: CS0030:
Cannot convert type
‘IPAMIntranet.IPAMIntranetMaster’ to
‘ASP.ipamintranetmaster_master’

and

string tVar = ((MyNamespace.MyMasterPage)Master).variable

which gives the following error:

Unable to cast object of type
‘ASP.ipamintranetmaster_master’ to
type
‘IPAMIntranet.IPAMIntranetMaster’.

Does anyone know what is happening or am I missing something.

I worked this out by using an interface instead.
