Issues with LinkButtons

[wings9697]

Hi. I have a form which I'm using to store data from individual case investigations. I am using web form templates to hold each of the documents needed for each case.

The problem I'm having is that the templates wont work unless I use the created LinkButtons that they create. When I tried to use regular Button controls set exactly like the LinkButtons, my forms would not connect to the SQL tables I had created. When I went back to the LinkButtons, everything was fine. Now the problem is if I attempt any kind of Postback command from the Insert LinkButton, A - my table connection gets broken again, and B, it doesn't go back to the page I selected, it just stays on the Entry page with both the Insert LinkButton, and the Cancel LinkButton enabled.

I've tried to recast the Visible function on the Click of the LinkButton, I even tried to create an event to force the issue (see below), but again it worked and went back to the menu but wouldn't insert the record into the table...

 <asp:LinkButton ID="InsertButton" runat="server" CausesValidation="True" CommandName="Insert"
                Text="Insert New Case" Width="109px"
                OnClientClick="return confirm('Case now being stored in Main Caselog...');"
                OnClick="CloseInsertForm">
            </asp:LinkButton></td>

  Protected Sub CloseInsertForm(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        Response.Redirect("~/Mainmenu.aspx")
    End Sub

Does anyone have any idea what I can do to solve this problem? I'm open to any suggestions....
