i have access front end and sql server 2005 back end. Now i am writing
asp.net application using same GUI i have with access.
i am using tab control in access to seperate or group similar fields. cos i
have 80 fields in one form so i used tab control. now i want to do that thing
with asp.net .. i dont know tab control is avaialbe with asp.net or not ...
or any other suggestion ..
if i used suppose four links , each link represent like a tab i am not sure
how to access data on different page for same record. like customer bio info
on one page and his/her other info on other page. with tab control its easy
but with asp.net :(

If you are using ASP.NET 2.0 then you can use the MultiView control.
Add as many views as you need to the control and populate them with the
fields you need. On the final view you can have a submit button.

If you use server controls all the values will be saved between
postbacks.

You an simulate the multiview with multiple panels as necessary.

One thing i do just to improve readibility is to create an enum with
names that describes the different states your wizard could be. I then
create a single toggle method that takes a specfic enum value as
parameter and use a switch statement to set what should be visible for
that state. This will keep the "wizard" logic centralized.
