submitting a PDF form

I have a pdf form with form fields. I want to submit the values and post them to a database. I created a save button and the action is "Submit form". It calls an aspx file. When I try to write out the request variables I get none. For some reason none are getting posted. What am i doing wrong?
I have been trying to figure this out for quite some time and I am getting a bit frustrated, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.Code would be useful. What does the command look like that's attempting to write to the db? Is the information supplied to gain access to the db correct? Are the table/field names correct? Is your syntax correct?
The reason that I didnt bother posting any code is because I am getting stuck before the point that I try to put the info into the db. I cant even retrieve the form variables
Request.form("name of filed from pdf form")
this value gives me nothing.
My question is if there is something that I am supposed to be doing in the PDF form that should make this work.
thanks.

Suggestions and Help needed for Video report

Hi,

I need to create a web report that contains data and multiple video avi files. The report should able be exported to other formats , e.g. PDF, web archive.

I am thinking to provide a link to the video file, so when the user clicks on the link, the video is played in a pop up IE window which embeds a media player to play the video. And the link points to a Generic Handler file .ashx.
Else I may need to embed many media players in the HTML to play each avi files.

I need to export this report with all data and videos file. How can this be done with asp.net ReportViewer and SSRS ? Is it possible to intercept the export event and copy the video avi files before export ?
Any suggestions and ideas ?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

You can use gridview to show your reports and just use links for you to download avi files.

However, if you still want to use reportview control, here it is:
