Are you using this code? If yes then what you want to achieve with this. Please be more clear.

That code would display nothing in the Display control.

If you change it as follows you will get the "Name" from your request in the "Display" control-

C#

String tempStr1 = "";
tempStr1 = String.Format("Hi {0}!", Request["Name"]);
   Display.Text = tempStr1;

Using the abouve code, if Request["Name"] is "noname89757" then "Display" control would display "Hi noname89757!"

C#

// create a temporary string containing no characters
String tempStr1 = "";
// format a string containing the contents of a field called Name,
// but don't save the new string anywhere
String.Format("{1} ", "", Request["Name"]);
// set the text content of variable Display to the string tempStr1
// which is nothing
   Display.Text = tempStr1;
