I am trying to pass a DropDownList from one page to the other.
The code from the first ASPX page is:

C#

if (validLogon)

       {
           Session["FacilityNames"] = FacilityNames;
           Session["User"] = txtUser;
           Response.Redirect("Default2.aspx");
       }

Where FacilityName is a string array
The code from the Second ASPX page is:

C#

public partial class Default2 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string fac = (string)Session["FacilityNames"].ToString();

           foreach (var sss in fac)
        {
            ddlFacilities.Items.Add(sss.ToString());
        }

The fac string variable is populated with "System String[] instead of the string array specified from the first page.

Solution 1

ToString() is overload of ToString for session. so write like below.

C#

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string fac = (string)Session["FacilityNames"];

           foreach (var sss in fac)
        {
            ddlFacilities.Items.Add(sss.ToString());
        }
