    <p>I have this action:</p> <pre><code> public ActionResult Report(AdminReportRequest reportRequest, FormCollection formVariables) { AdminEngine re = new AdminEngine(); AdminReport report = re.GetCompleteAdminReport(reportRequest); return View(report); } </code></pre> <p>I was wondering how could I go about Redirecting to another action within the same controller, passing the AdminReportRequest, and FormCollection variables?</p> <p>I had something like this in mind:</p> <pre><code> public ActionResult EarningsSalesReport(AdminReportRequest reportRequest, FormCollection formVariables) { if (!reportRequest.Download) { AdminEngine re = new AdminEngine(); AdminReport report = re.GetCompleteAdminReport(reportRequest); return View(report); } return RedirectToAction("ExcelSalesReport", reportRequest, formVariables); } public FileResult ExcelSalesReport(AdminReportRequest reportRequest, FormCollection formVariables) { AdminEngine re = new AdminEngine(); Stream SalesReport = re.GetExcelAdminReport(reportRequest); return new FileStreamResult(SalesReport, "application/ms-excel") { FileDownloadName = "SalesReport" + DateTime.Now.ToString("MMMM d, yyy") + ".xls" }; } </code></pre> <p>This is obviously wrong and throws up some errors, such as:</p> <blockquote> <p>'System.Web.Mvc.Controller.RedirectToAction(string, string, System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary)' has some invalid arguments</p> </blockquote> <p>and</p> <blockquote> <p>Argument 3: cannot convert from 'System.Web.Mvc.FormCollection' to 'System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary'</p> </blockquote> <p>If someone could point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it, I think I might have to edit the Global.asax file however I'm not overly familiar with this.</p> <p>thanks.</p>

    1. COThe method signature is 'RedirectToAction(String, String, RouteValueDictionary)'. But you try to pass the third parameter of type 'FormCollection' to this method.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
