Passing a Dynamic Variable

I'm trying to set a variable dynamicly using a session(ID). I'm not sure if its possible and/or how to right it. Here is what I have.

<form name="dealer" runat="server">
<p>Zip:<asp:textbox ID="zip" runat="server" columns="5" TextMode="SingleLine" />
</p>
<p> Password:<asp:textbox ID="Password" runat="server" />
</p>
<p><asp:button ID="Submit" runat="server" Text="Submit" />
</p>
<% if dataset1.RecordCount > 0 then
Session("Zip") = "DataSet1.FieldValue("Zip", Container)"

Session("Pass") = "DataSet1.FieldValue("Password", Container)"

Response.Redirect("view2.aspx")

else if((Request.Form("password"))) <> Nothing _

OR ((Request.Form("zip"))) <> Nothing

response.Write("Login failed. Please try again.")

end if %>
</form>

I'm using Dreamweaver so the Data bound items look a little different (i think)

Please help!

Hello NoSkills,
are you receiving an error when running this page?
What do you expect to happen and what is it actually doing?

Could you also post the code which you use to populate the Dataset?

Thanks
