How can I use a global variable in multiple pages in IntraWeb for .NET?

alternatives to consider:
* store an encrypted hidden string between pages
* session variable -- I think .Net provides some native libraries for this
* cookies

Note: I'm a bit out of my league, since I don't have D2005/Intraweb experience.  I'm just suggesting work-arounds.

In normal IntraWeb Web Page project, there is a Session form we can used to set variables. However, there is no any such thing in IntraWeb for Delphi.NET

but in a .NET application you can just use the Session state

Session['YourVariable']:=TheValue
or
Context.Session['YourVariable']:=TheValue

you need to include System.Web.SessionState in  your uses

Hi BlackTigerX,

How do I define a variable type?
if a variable is defined in MainForm, can I use it in other web form?

ysimon

yes, as long as the types are compatible, you can use the same session variable in any number of forms

Context.Session['YourVariable']:=TheValue //TheValue can be string, int, a dataset, any object...

then in another form

AnotherVariableOfTheSameType:=Context.Session['YourVariable'];

After I put
Context.Session['Num']:=123;
in the MainForm, I got
[Fatal Error] F2084 Internal Error: ILLK8154
when it was compiled
The left side is an Object, how can I input a value on it?

Any one know how to use Session to set global variables between the PageForms of IntraWeb for .NET?
Help!!!
