Insert a Datatable or Datagrid into ViewState?

[Stephajn Craig]

Is it possible to insert the contents of an entire datatable or datagrid
into ViewState so that is can be persisted between calls to and from the
server? It's on an intranet, so bandwidth isn't too much of a concern here.

Why not just put it in Session state?

If you have enough memory on your web server it would be much cheaper,
faster and easier.
