There is no way to make ASP.NET open a new browser window. You can, however,
include dynamically generated Javascript code to open a new window with the
desired URL. The necessary information can be passed to this window using
whatever technique you want, including querystring, Session, etc. Opening
new windows is performed by the browser, so ASP.NET has no control over it.
However, keep in mind that many browsers have pop-up blockers that may
prevent Javascript from opening this new window (it will usually inform the
user and give them the option of opening it, but it waits for the user's
confirmation, so you should tell them why the browser will be trying to open
a new window). Good Luck!
