I would probably use a database... so users can come back in the future to
finish off the survey.

You can tag each user with a Cookie to look up their saved results.

Hi,

Viewstate: - Not possible as you have user specific data for each instances
of the form.

Database: - very expensive operation as you have to save & retrieve for each
form you have filled in.

Session: - Appropriate for this scenario.

First, I would probably store the data in a HashTable to make it easy to
access and use the field ID names as the index field.

I would probably use session state to store this hash table if I did not
expect much heavy traffic. If traffic is a concern, then you can push it to
the database serializing the hashtable to a blob. You could even use a MS
Access database for that as long as you are in a "one" web server as opposed
to a server farm.
