You've got a few choices, and it really depends on your audience and your
skill level:

1) On the first page save, insert the record.  After that, it's all
updates.  Best for the audience using dial-up, as they might lose their
connection and would be annoyed at having to start over.
2) Pass all the previous pages' fields to the next page and store as
hidden fields. A bit programmer-labor intensive but it works.
3) Store everything in the session scope, a good solution.
4) Use a multipart flash form if you have MX7 and an audience with a fast
connection.
