global dataset?

[nswan]

alright,

I've rewritten this question as the problem has now kinda changed.

I've got a dataset that got my data in (obviously), and my ASP.NET page displays one record at a time. I have buttons saying next and previous to move through the dataset and display the other records. The problem I have is when i click on a prev/next button the dataset get's re-dimed and so doesn't have any of the records in.

How do i define it globally so it doesn't get re-dimmed?

Cheers
Nick

Either store it in the Cache, Application object, or the Session object.

Look them up on the www.msdn.microsoft.com/library site.

cheers,

i didn't realise you could store complex things like datasets in session objects.
