Passing value from one form to another

[Mike]

Hi,

I need to pass a value from one Web Form to another. In Form #1 I have set up a web control (hyperlink) that in its "Transfer" property contains the name of the Web Form to be loaded. How can I read the listIndex of a Listbox in Form #1 when the Form#2 is loaded?

Thanks

Mike

You can make a public property on Form #1 which reads it and returns it. Or, why not just pass it as a request item to Form#2?

When another form loads, the first one's gone. No public property, nothing. Whatever you want to pass, you should put either into the request or session variables.

Why not use Session variables?

Form1:
Session.Add("My Value", "123");
// load form 2

Form2:
void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
string myval = Session["MyValue"].ToString();
}
