    <p>This just doesn't make sense, casting a string value to a Control.</p> <p>As far as I can see, you are not inserting a Control into the Sessiosn, not even the Control.ToString() value, which also wouldn't be working.</p> <p>Before continuing, it might be usefull to check which type is retrieved from the Session without casting anything (remark: this is only possible with .NET 3.5 or higher):</p> <pre><code>var sessionValue = Session["ctrl"]; </code></pre> <p>When doing so, you will find out the value is of type object, containing the value:</p> <pre><code>"&lt;div&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/div&gt;" </code></pre> <p>The above output is not a Control, but a string/html value.</p> <p>There are two solution paths which u can follow:</p> <ul> <li>Change the "SET" call on the Session</li> <li>Change the "GET" call on the Session</li> </ul> <p>In the second example, you keep to the fact that you are inserting a string and therefor you would like to read out that string value:</p> <pre><code>string sessionValueAsString = string.Empty; Object sessionValue = Session["ctrl"]; if (sessionValue != null) sessionValueAsString = sessionValue.ToString(); </code></pre> <p>The above example could suit ur needs, never the less I'm guessing you are in the need to save an object of type "Control" in the session. This can be achieved like so:</p> <pre><code>MyControl myControl = new MyControl {Title = "My custom control"}; Session["myControl"] = myControl; // Read the Session value cross Postback MyControl mySessionControl = (MyControl)Session["myControl"]; </code></pre> <p>Apart from the above example, I'm not 100% sure what you are trying to do. My guess is you made a mistake inserting the wrong value in the Session.</p> <p>One remark: I'm not a fan of storing the WebControls in the session, it would be cleaner to store your data objects in the Session (e.g. store a Customer class instead of the CustomerUserControl, this way you can read out the Session and populate the required controls using the data found in the Session). </p>

    3. COStoring a dynamic table should not require to save the entire control on the session. nevertheless, to reply to ur problem: replace var by object. (i've edited my answer) Which .NET framework are you using?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
