Remarks
If the immediate parent of the control parameter is not a TemplateBasedControl object, the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation object tree is used to determine the parent, until either a TemplateBasedControl object has been reached or the containing form object is reached (in which case a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned).
If control is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned and no exception is thrown.
