Session - getting value from details view

[trium123]

Hi All.
I'm almost there with creating my first session!!
Can anyone help me with the syntax for the following code fragment, i would like the session variable to get the nameID from DetailsView1, if i put a dot after DetailsView1 i get loads of options, but none are for the nameID. It looks like that i probably need to select a few more options from these menus but i don't know which ones..!

Session("testid") = Me.DetailsView1 ' ??????

Thanks for your help.
Regards
Ian

Try This

Dim dv As DetailsView = Me.DetailsView1
 Dim NameIDvar As Int32=CType(dv.FindControl("NameID"), TextBox).Text
Session("testid") =NameIDvar

you'll need to replace the nameid by find control with the name of your control that holds the nameid. I assume nameid is an integer or you'll have to change that too. Depending on the type of control (label,textbox etc) you'll have to replace that too.
