How can I trap a user control event from a datarepeater

Question

I have a user control I've built that consists of several radio buttons in group boxes. I want to trap the radiobutton.CheckedChanged event for each group.

I've declared Public Events with a boolean parameter and raise the appropriate event on CheckedChanged, but the event doesn't make its way out of the DataRepeater.

I have the user control bound to a datasource and the data is updated, but I need to expose other controls outside of the repeater depending on the RadioButton values. Stepping through the code I see the event being raised in the control, but it is never trapped.

I don't have the code available at the moment, but the user control I created ctlAdmitAction has a pair of radio buttons (rbAdmit and rbNonAdmit). I have an event   Admit(ByVal status as Boolean)    defined that passes a boolean. I raise the event in the CheckedChanged events of the radio buttons and then try to handle the event from the form I have the repeater on. I can step through the code and the event is raised within the user control, but the handler is never invoked.

The repeater has only this control and a label in the template and I have the control bound to a property named Order. The datasource is a List(of Orders) that is added to and removed from in a listview on the same form.
