You are right: first onload fires, and then the button click.

The easiest way to overcome this, is to move your logic to a separate sub 
or function and call that from both the onclick as from the onload. The 
following pseudo code clarifies what I mean:


Page_OnLoad()

         UpdateMyLabel()

End Page_Onload()


Button_OnClick()

         Session("MySessionVariable") = WhateverYouNeedToDoToGetAValue()
         UpdateMyLabel()

End Button_OnClick()


UpdateMyLabel()

         Label1.Text = Session("MySessionVariable")

End UpdateMyLabel()


Hope this makes sense to you.

Cheers,

Imar
