change label text, VB, eg. LabelBlock.text but i cant see it it in code view

Question
-
When im programming my app, i try to use
textblock1.text = "bah"
But when i use that because of xaml it cant find it, can anyone help me?
if you want to know how i get the text... i just use a txt file on the webserver and move the text from there into the textblock, but i cant do that because the textblock wont show up in code view
IM making an app that gets its info for a website so, it dosnt need to update very 5 secconds.- Edited by Callum Carmicheal Friday, November 22, 2013 4:12 PM added more info

Hello Callum,
this error is right, because in your xaml file i can't find textblock1. So please put textblock to your xaml file with name textblock1 or change any textblock x:Name property to textblock1.

Can you show how your xaml look like for textblock1? Try using x:Name = "textblock1" inside your xaml for TextBlock control and see if that fixes your issue?
Thanks, Sachin
