i need to serialize my collection

[Islamegy®]

In my EntityCollection inherted from CollectionBase I marked it
[Serializable] and Implement ISerializable Interface..
here is the code..
GetObjectDate( .....)
info.AddValue("Col",this.InnerList,typeof(ArrayLis t));

and while the InnerList is read only so i found some codes to workaround
using reflection.. but i didn't work so i tried to Add it using this in the
protected Constractor
{
ArrayList arr = (ArrayList)info.GetValue("Col",typeof(ArrayList));
this.InsertRange(arr);
}
the Add methodd which is needed for serialization is also there...
List.Add(entity)

but When i add this to my page viewstate and retive it back using this code
in Page_Load
{
if(!IsPostBack)
ent = new EntityCollection();
ent.Add(Entity.CreateInstance("ID1",Name));
ent.Add(Entity.CreateInstance("ID2",Name));
ent.Add(Entity.CreateInstance("ID3",Name));
Datagrid1.DataSource = ent;
Datagrid1.Databind();
ViewState.Add("coll",ent);
}
till this point there is No problems i get my collection displayed in the
grid

when i add or delete any item
{
ent = (EntityCollection)ViewState["coll"];
ent.Add(Entity.CreateInstance("ID3",Name));
Datagrid1.Databind();
}
my collection disapear even it i removed the if(!IsPostBack) or moved it to
Page_Init i will find only the original records not the one i added later so
what am i miss here??

Well, forst of all if the DataGrid is ViewState enabled, there is no need to
add the Collection it is bound to to ViewState. The DataGrid contents are
saved in ViewState already.

In that case, you shouldn't need to DataBind again. It is already bound to
the DataGrid.

I hope yuo'll forgive me, but I don't have time to look thorough all that
code.

This sort of problem is usually associated with a sequence issue. ASP.Net
Controls, including, and perhaps most importantly, System.Web.UI.Page, have
a sequence of execution. Certain events fire in a certain sequence, and it's
important to make sure that you put your code in the right place in the
sequence, that is, in the right event handler. The following is a link to an
MSDN .Net Libary article that explains the "Execution Lifecycle" of ASP.Net
Controls. I keep a copy taped to my office wall!
