Your code doesn't work because you've not written the code to work, from the sound of it. Yes, the logical thing to do, is to pass the search string via the query string, so that a search can be bookmarked. Then you need to search your DB and return only the values that match, obviously.

this is not a problem, just logical & business, for search button can be done like below:

C#

Response.Redirect("your_search_page.aspx?ID=" + txtSearch.Text);

so in "your_search_page.aspx", you can write a Page_Load event like:

C#

string query = "select * from Products where ProductID = '" + Request.QueryString["ID"] + "'";
// use SqlDataAdapter to fill data to DataTable and binding to GridView

notes: i don't recommend you create an query by concat strings, the better way is use query string with parameter or store producer
