Hi Gary,
As for the Wizard control, it only store the current ActiveStep's Index
internally. And in the "SideBarButtonClick" event, it will provide the
currentIndex as one parameter and the target stepindex(the one user has
clicked) as next step index. If you need the further previous step index,
you need to manually persist it. One good place to store it is using
ViewState. And here you can simply use Wizard control's Attributes
collection to store it(that will be automatically persisted into
viewstate).
Here is a simple code snippet I've tried on this.
=====================
protected void Wizard1_SideBarButtonClick(object sender,
WizardNavigationEventArgs e)
{
string prev = Wizard1.Attributes["previous_step"];
Response.Write(
string.Format("<br/>originally come from step{0} to step{1}"
, prev, e.CurrentStepIndex)
);
Response.Write(
string.Format("<br/>will go from step{0} to step{1}"
, e.CurrentStepIndex, e.NextStepIndex)
);
Wizard1.Attributes["previous_step"] = e.CurrentStepIndex.ToString();
}
==========================
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Steven Cheng

In this event I can tell where I'm going via e.NextStepIndex but how can I
tell where I am coming from? Do I have to setup Session["whereamI"] and
track it myself?
