Your module control will inherit from PortalModuleBase which provides a Settings property. Settings is a hashtable of combined ModuleSettings and TabModuleSettings keyed by the name of the setting. For example:

In the settings control:

     Dim mc As New DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.ModuleController
     mc.UpdateModuleSetting(ModuleId, "SortDirection", "ASC")

In the view control:

Dim sortDirection As String = Settings("SortDirection")

Is this the way that you are updating and retrieving your settings? If so and it still is not working have you:

1. Confirmed that the ModuleID being used in the UpdateModuleSetting method matches that of the view control?
2. Confirmed that your ModuleSettings are being properly stored in the DNN ModuleSettings table?

What value is being returned when trying to retrieve a setting - incorrect or null? Is an error being logged?

Is the confirmation "form" another .ascx user control of the same module or is it an .aspx page? In either case you need to pass the ModuleID (as parameter "mid") in the querystring using one of the several overloads of NavigateUrl or EditUrl method to build the url to which you will be redirecting upon completion of the first step. In the former case, your control will inherit from PortalModuleBase and should automatically handle reading the ModuleID from the "mid=<ModuleID>" contained in the querystring. In the second case (which I would avoid if possible) you will have to use your own code to read the ModuleID from the querystring then obtain the ModuleSettings hashtable for that ModuleID. Take a look at the source code for PortalModuleBase to see how that is done.
