Hi Rana

I thought about an array, i thought sessions would be just as good seeing im not going to have to loop through the data after i fill it,, so it seemed and array was an overkill,,, im guessing the sesion data would be less work on the server,..

ney my trouble was, i can t replace the DATASOURCENAME on this statement > Session(DATASOURCENAME) with the actual name of the datasource.

so my loop will make:
Session(Item.Cells(i).????? ) = e.Item.Cells(i).Text

Session("ID") = e.Item.Cells(i).Text
Session("Fname") = e.Item.Cells(i).Text
Session("Lname") = e.Item.Cells(i).Text

thanks
