The problem is in not losing the "parent" data... Are these windows open
in the same browser window or are you opening the "child" in a new
window? If its the same just save their existing data, in a
db/viewstate/session/etc, and then when you reload it retrieve it.
If not you will have to force the "parent" to postback to get it to
refresh, and with the viewstate enabled you should get the pre-entered
data to remain

Mark,
The standard way is to call javascript method showModalDialog for the child
form. The child form can pass back data in javascript window.returnVa lue
property which the parent form will get as a return value of the
showModalDialog call.

redesign the whole form to be more modular
problem is - i have to pass an ID to the child that doesnt exist until the
parent is saved - so things are getting more complicated
than in reality they should be

Is it possible? In the parent process, I have a socket that binds,
listens and then accepts new connections (which creates new sockets in
the process). I want to be able to pass some of these new sockets to
a spawned process. Is it possible, and if so how?
Any help is much appreciated!!
