Thanks David.  Okay, so:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<% Public sub header()

response.write("a bunch of html")

end sub %>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Like that?

When I do that, I an error on this line:  <% Public sub header()

Compiler Error Message: BC30289: Statement cannot appear within a method
body. End of method assumed.

Or is it like this:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<script runat="server">

Public sub header()

response.write("a bunch of html")

end sub

</script>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I try that, then the page which calls the user control bombs out.

Line 26: <aspfd:header runat="server"/>

BC30188: Declaration expected.
