Deanna,

URLHelper class provides this type of functionality. Also you may use ASP.NET method: Request.QueryString["parameter_name"]

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much!

I had gone through some of the URLHelper methods before and couldn't get it to do exactly what I needed but I just tried the Request.QueryString["parameter_name"] and it worked perfectly. Thank you again.

Hey Deanna,

You can also use the macro like so if you have a webpart:

{% QueryString.GetValue("paramName") |(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}

{%paramName%}

Both will work but the ? macro is specifically designed for query string retrieval. The % macros are designed for data retrieval. See the documentation here.
