Thank you for reading my Thread.

I am attempting to avoid "hardcoding" a link to another tabid/module. I am familiar with using

Response.Redirect(EditUrl(string.Empty, string.Empty, "Poll_Answers_Edit", String.format("AnswerID={0}", (string)e.CommandArgument), string.format("QuestionID={0}", QList.SelectedValue)));

OR

Back.NavigateUrl = Globals.NavigateURL();

However, these allow me to link within the same module. How do I link to another module without Hard Coding the link.

Thank you for your time.

Alex,

if I understand, you need to dynamically understand where some module is installed on your portal: I solved this by using GetModuleByDefinition, like in this function:

Public Shared Function LinkCliente(ByVal pid As Integer, ByVal cdCli As String) As String
            Try
                Dim objModules As New ModuleController
                Dim SearchModule As ModuleInfo = objModules.GetModuleByDefinition(pid, "VOJPCustomers")
                If SearchModule Is Nothing Then
                    Return "#"
                Else
                    Return NavigateURL(SearchModule.TabID, "SchedaCliente", "cdcli=" & cdCli, "mid=" & SearchModule.ModuleID)
                End If

            Catch ex As Exception
                Return "#"
            End Try

        End Function

Hope this helps.

Alex,

you're right sorry, have to clarify:  yes pid is a parameter for PortalID, while "cdCli" is another param I need (customer code in my scenario). Exactly, "VOJPCustomer" is the friendly name of the module I want to link. Finally, "SchedaCliente" is a control in my module: passing this param to the NavigateURL function would result in a "ctl=SchedaCliente" param to be added in the generated url. If you omit that you will link to the main View control of your module.

That is:

Return NavigateURL(SearchModule.TabID, "SchedaCliente", "cdcli=" & cdCli, "mid=" & SearchModule.ModuleID)

will give me a link to a certain tabid (the one where my VOJPCustomers module is installed), and will ask that module to load the "SchedaCliente" control, passing a cdCli parameter.
