Answer 1

use the ViewData and pass it to the view

in your controller set up something like ViewData["namehere"] = value

then in your View you can call the value of Viewdata["name here"] - think of the ViewData as a bag that you can put properties and their values into and not need to explicitly pass the viewdata to the view for the view to use it
