If you put the MasterType directive on your default page

<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/Master1.master" %>

then you can call methods and properties on the master page in the code-behind:

MyButton.Text = "New text";

I would use a property on the master page to change the button, I think you can make it public but meh.

public String ButtonText { get { return button1.text; } set { button1.Text = value } }

Then on the default page, set the master type.

<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/mymaster.master"  %>

Then on the default page you should be able to access by going through the property.

Master.ButtonText = "Hello, Master Page Button";

[Sorry, assuming C#]
