The form object is a container type "NameValueCollection". You want to iterate over it this way:

C#
            // Convert Request.Form Collection to Hashtable
            HttpContext htc = HttpContext.Current;
            Hashtable htFormData = new Hashtable();
            foreach (string sForm in htc.Request.Form.Keys)
            {
                htFormData[sForm] = htc.Request.Form[sForm].ToString();
            }

I like Hashtables myself, so I just convert it. ;-)

I know you are using VB.net, but this should get you in the right direction. Or look up NameValueCollection in the SDK Help and see what to do with it with VB.net.
