Problem CustomTextField.Parent Cast to ContainerControl

Targets
1

Hello, I have created a CustomTextField.
The text fields are placed on a ContainerControl.

Now I have to cast the ContainerControl via the parent of the Texfield.
There are variables stored in the ContainerControl that I need access to.

However, I can’t find any option here. I couldn’t find anything in the forum either.

Type mismatch error. Expected class ContainerControl, but got class RectControl
var base as ContainerControl = r

var r as RectControl = me.Parent
var V_CC as ContainerControl = r

var V_B as V_Base = V_CC

me.Tooltip = V_B.VersuchParent.VN.totext

Casting is done with parenthesis

Dim c1 as class1
Dim p1 as ParentClass = c1

 If p1 isa Class1 then
   // cast p1 to Class1
   Class1(p1).whateverIsSpecificToClass1
End if

Thanks for your help, I found something in the forum that works for me:

var ewc as EmbeddedWindowControl = EmbeddedWindowControl(me.Parent)
var c as ContainerControl1 = ContainerControl1(ewc.Container())

me.Tooltip = c.wert.totext

		  // ok we have the handle for this EWC 
		  // so find the matching ContainerControl
