Connected Web Parts can be a very tricky thing to get right and should be seriously considered before being used. The code project article "Connecting Custom Web Parts in SharePoint" by Nioosha Kashani at Connecting Custom Web Parts in SharePoint[^] is pretty good place to start, likewise with the MSDN documentation at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ms469765(v=office.14).aspx[^] An alternative option could be to use jQuery, where you assign a click event which then updates a html web part which the desired data, going via REST or SPSServives.js for data retrieval. It may involve a learning curve of jQuery, SPServices, REST, JSON but they are great skills to have when it comes to SharePoint anyway. -DB
