Hello, Friends

I'm binding some data in my GridView using ObjectDataSouce. I need too, specify some SelectParameters what are stored in ViewState, but in the "Parameter Collection Editor Dialog", the "Parameter Source" option shows only: Cookie, Control, Form, Profile, QueryString, Session

I wish bind to some value in ViewState. How not appears the option "ViewState", I need place my values in some HiddenField control to bind...

Someone knows how I do to bind to ViewState?

Regards

Fabio

Good point, Fabio! I have the same issue. I am not sure you found a solution, but amybe you found a workaroud at lesat.

Here are my workarounds.

1. Use _selecting event of the datasource

   protected void ObjectDataSource1_Selecting(object sender, ObjectDataSourceSelectingEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Command.Parameters["@paraname"].Value = ViewState["whatever"];  
    }

If you don't like the above...

2. Use a hidden (invisible) control such as a lable, then set its parameter source to that control.
