What are the differences between a ViewState variable & Session
variable?

Thanks,

ViewState keeps its data in the html that is sent back and forth from server
to client.
(Put a large object..into ViewState.. and then ... look at the html source )

Session puts the object/data into server resources/memory.

ViewState is more scalable, but can signficantly increase the bandwidth from
server to client.
I use very small objects/values in Session most of the time.
