My View looks like this:
<%@ Control Language=\"C#\"
Inherits=\"System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl
One other option is to persist the data you need in TempData. This will hand it to the next request, and you can retrieve it there. You should be able to persist the entire model object if you want to.
But it's easier (and better practice) to just retrieve it again from the database, as Darin suggests.
