Retrieve database id?

Hello,

I am sending (via email) a link to a page (
http://receive.aspx?ID=xxx) with the id from the database. How do I
retrieve that data back from the database using that ID=xxx
information?

Hi Mark,

As far as I know (and I am pretty sure of that) is it impossible to send a
email to a page.

Why? Because a page is just a document on your webserver.

To process an email, you should have to look to your emailsystem and that
can be a hell of a job.

I must not have been clear enough on my question.
The email is being sent from a web page, that is not the issuse. It
works.
I want to know how to retrive the ID=xxx information from the database
and pull that record that matches the ID number.

Hi Mark,

Have a look at httpRequest.Que ryString

But this Get method is the worst you can use it makes all open for the
client and the web,

Why not not using the normal serversidecontr ols like the textbox.
