Posting back to the same page will probably be the best.

You could have everything on one page, but just hide what you don't
want the user to see. IIS will remember all the values for the hidden
fields but the user won't be able to see them.

You could also make three user controls, one for each page. It would
be just like above, but you would only have to show/hide the user
control instead of many input controls.

Hope this helps,
