Can't get querystring to post to second page

[Chumley Walrus]

I've got a c# script whereas I am trying to post from a textbox on my
firstpage.aspx over to page2.aspx, but the error I get is:The name
'txtstuff' does not exist in the class or namespace 'ASP.page2_aspx'
firstpage.aspx button object subroutine:
///////////////////////
private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.Redirect("dg4.aspx?txtboarddate=" +
this.txtboarddate.Text);
}
///////////////////////
page2.aspx script:
//////////////////////////////////////////
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data"%>

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient"%>

<script Language="C#" runat="server">

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

txtstuff = Request.QueryString["txtstuff"];

if(txtstuff != null){

if(txtstuff =="") txtstuff = "Visitor";

}

////txtstuff = Request.QueryString["txtstuff "];

////this.txtstuff .Text = Request.QueryString["txtstuff "];

BindMe();

}

// function to bind the records retrieved

// from the database to "dgrid" grid

void BindMe() {

////

string txtstuff = Request.QueryString["txtstuff"];

// build the connection string

string strConn = "SERVER=xxx.xx.xx.xx;UID=xxx;PWD=xxxx;DATABASE=myd b;";


// connect to the database

SqlConnection objConn = new SqlConnection(strConn);
// query

string strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblDb where MyDate = '" & txtstuff &
"'";

// create an instance of the DataReader object

SqlCommand objCommand = new SqlCommand(strSQL, objConn);

objConn.Open();

SqlDataReader objReader = objCommand.ExecuteReader();
// assign the DataReader object as the source

// for the "dgrid" grid

dgrid.DataSource = objReader;

dgrid.DataBind();

// free up memory

objReader.Close();

objConn.Close();

}

</script>

Er, unless I'm missing something totally fundamental here, you're passing a
QueryString name of 'txtboarddate', and then trying to look for a
QueryString name of 'txtStuff'...???

[Chumley Walrus]

No sorry, the querystring name is 'txtstuff', not txtboarddate, as
txtstuff is just a generic example

Can you please send your "EXACT" code without modification...
