>See my response to Bruce. I have the Session method working but it seems like a clumsey way to make control values available to a subsequent page. If the first page was full of lots of controls, would we have to create a session variable for each one of them? Isn't that what the request object is for? I just don't know the syntax for it in .NET.

Another way would be to have everything on one page. You may have MultiView control or if you're using AJAX you can have tab control that will show GridView on one page and when you select a record you can switch to full record detail information.
