Datasets, Dataviews and Webpages.

[Tavish Muldoon]

Hello,

I have 2 web pages, page1 and page2

On page one, I have a dataadapter (daTracks) that fills a
dataset(dsTracks)

1)I want to create a Dataview on page2 with the information of the
dataset dsTracks.

How do I pass a dataset from one page to the other? A hidden field
for a dataset?

2) I want to create a select criteria that will be passed to the 2nd
page and displayed in the Dataview. So the user has a find option.
The can choose from a bunch of columns in a drop down list - let say
the choose 'Author'. I want to pass author to web page 2, create a
select statement that will show all the authors from the dataset
dsTracks in a Dataview.
So I need to pass the choice 'authors' and do a 'select authors from
dgTracks' and display it in the dataview.

How can I do this - code examples or suggestions?

Thanks,

Tmuld.

Hi,

I am fairly new at this, so, I may not be completely
correct, however, as I understand it, the dataset could be
stored as a session variable...so it could be read by all
the pages.

Hi

Storing in a session is a good option but there will be a
performance hit if number of users increases

so u can store it in the cache
