How to fetch the Item Property/Fields in Sitecore?

Question

I am trying to fetch a field called footer from the Item FooterComponent and want to display.This is the code I have tried but cannot fetch and display.

cs code:

Item footerText=Sitecore.content.Database.GetItem(GUID);
string MyFooter=FooterText["Footer"];
txtFooter.Item = MyFooter;

ascx code:

<sc:fieldrenderer runat="server" id="txtFooter" fieldname="Footer"/>

You should not set a string value of the field to the field renderer. Just set correct item and field name:

Item footerTextItem = Sitecore.content.Database.GetItem(GUID);
txtFooter.Item = footerTextItem;

<sc:fieldrenderer runat="server" id="txtFooter" fieldname="Footer"/>
