C# - Load User Control Given Its Type?

Is there a way to instantiate and use a usercontrol (.ascx) if given you have its Type (ie. typeof(MyUserControl))?With regular asp.net controls like a textbox or a dropdownlist you can just make a new instance and add it to a controls collection. This doesnt appear to work for User controls. While you can make a new instance and add it to a collection, and have all of its events fire, it will not actually render to the page. Typically you would call Page.LoadControl() with the path to the .ascxThis presents a problem if all you have is its type. How can you get the path to the .ascx to give to the LoadControl method. Ideally I would also like to not have to have a reference to the Page object
