web development - passing data

shl
My app is for data entry over the web. The user enters
data into a datagrid on the 1st pg, which I put into a
datatable ( this datatable has 10 columns, and could be
up to about 100 rows). When the user is finished with
this data entry, he goes to the 2nd pg, where another
data grid is displayed, and some of the data (about 5 of
the columns from the 1st pg)is to be displayed in the
datagrid in read only mode, and the user can enter more
info. The 'powers to be' want this data entry split over
two pages, and my question is can/how can the data from
the 1st pg be transferred to the 2nd page - is it
possible to pass a datatable from page to page without
having to connect/access the database again. I've also
tried creating a collection of data items (data
structures that mimic the datarows), and the collection
works fine on the 1st page (adding, etc), but I can't
seem to pass it/access it from the 2nd page with the data
still present. Any ideas welcome. Thanks.

Hi shl
You can save data in the session, I recommend you to look therefore in/on
MSDN.

Just by using session("myvari able") = data
(It is only string data)

Recommended is to make it not to big because they say it uses a lot of
effort from the server.

I think that we have to keep always in mind that a user can not (or very
slowly) respond on a page and therefore to get again data from a database is
not spoiled work.

(You even can save your data it in a cookie, but that would I certainly not
do).

Hi, In my application I get lots of different sorts of information from databases. As such, a lot of information is stored in DataSets and DataTable objects. Up until now, I have been passing around chunks of data in DataTables/DataSets, simply because that was the format that they were in when the data was taken from the database. Now, I know this maybe a pretty silly question with a standard "it depends" answer, but I'm going to...

Ok, I've never done n-Tier development and I'm getting confused... Assuming I have a business layer and a data access layer that may be running on different machines, how does my business layer know where my data access layer is running? What is it I have to do in the business layer that "creates" the data access layer on the other server? Second, what do I pass between my business layer and my data access layer? Should I be returning...

I was under the assumption that if you pass an object as a param to a method and inside that method this object is changed, the object will stay changed when returned from the method because the object is a reference type? my code is not proving that.
