Passing Array between pages

[Paraki]

Hi,

How to pass the array or arraylist(dataset or any other object in fact) from
one page to another.
I am using the one page to display 10 records and another page to display
and modify the selected record. I want to pass the values of selected record
from one page to another. Can someone help me to do that?

Thanks in advance.

On the page where you get your data, do this:

ArrayList myData = new ArrayList();
myData.Add("hello world");

Session["MyData"] = myData; //Add the data to session.

On subsequent pages when you need the data, do this:

ArrayList myDataRetrieved = (ArrayList)Session["MyData"];

Thanks a lot. That helped me a lot.
Can the custom objects be stored in session in similar way? I mean instead
of arraylist if I have a class called "Animals" and dog is the object, can I
pass this object between pages?

Sure, you can store any object in session state, with one caveat: If you use
out of process session state, your object must be serializable. If you're
just using the standard in process session state, you don't have to worry
about it.
