Can't access sending Web Forrm's ViewState

[Dee]

Hi
I have added

EnableViewStateMac="false"

to the sending WebForm's @Page Directive and my sample code has the
following line:

Dim coll As System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection
collForm = Request.Form
Dim n As Int16 = collForm.Count ' <-------- I get zero for this.

Why do I get an empty collection where the sending WebForm has many
server-side controls on it?

Thanks.
Dee

Actually when I attempt to go to the second page using:

Server.Transfer("result.aspx", True)

I get the following error message:

~~~~

Got it, had to include EnableViewStateMac="false" in both sending and
receiving codebehinds.
