I'm developing a module that will programmatically create new pages in a DNN site.  The part I'm stumped on is how to dynamically assign the permissions for the page.  I've read a few tutorials and in most cases it is recommended that you place a TabPermissionsGrid on the page and when you create the page in your code-behind just set the permissions of the page to the permissions of the grid.

Unfortunately, that's not exactly ideal for my situation since if I'm going to make the user click to choose permissions for the page then it defeats the purpose of having the page automatically created for them.  With that in my mind, it was my goal to add the grid, hide it and have the permissions set to what is needed for the page being created.  The problem is, I can't figure out how to set the permissions of the TabPermissionsGrid any better than I can set the permissions of the page I'm trying to create.

Since they both have the Permissions property and one's permission can be set to equal the other's permission without any type of casting, I'm assuming the permissions are created the same.  So basically, I need a way to do this programmatically without forcing any user input.  Any ideas?

Mitchel,  thanks for the suggestion.  As always, it came down to such a simple solution.  I took your idea and ran with it.  There was one small problem in that each new page has one entry for it's own unique permissions, but I actually ended upf figuring out how to dynamically add permissions to a page without having to copy them from anywhere.

Thanks again.
