RequestStockHelper.Add() : Best way to pass parameters between web parts?

I am retrieving the data for a detail view of a particular document type. Attached to that data is some custom table data that I would like to pass on to another webpart to use in a where clause.

The only reference I found to doing something like this was for version 5 using the RequestStockHelper.Add() method. Is this still the best way?

Basically I have a fact sheet, and that fact sheet is connected to a specific region and 1 or more business units. I want to take that region and business unit data(ID numbers) and pass it into a media contact repeater, to show all contacts relevant to a particular fact sheet.

Thoughts?

Hello, The RequestStockHelper approach is still the best way to share information between the controls. We also recommend a similar approach for setting Web part properties. Best Regards, Sandro
