How to prevent loading data from database more than once?

[antonyliu2002]

I load data from a database to populate a ListBox in Page_Load in my VB
script.

Apparently, each time the page is visited the ListBox gets repopulated.

How do I stop it from connecting to the database and obtaining the data
to populate the list box if the list box is already populated?

Thanks.

If Not IsPostback Then
' populate the ListBox
End If

Hey, Elton,

That sounds easy. I got it. Thanks a lot!
