how to preserve a userid and password information

Hello Everyone, Using ASP I'm trying to logon to a "*.mdw" database. I'm successful there and once the connection is established I'm directing the user to another asp page to select the options they want. Can anyone tell me how do I preserve a userid and password across all the pages each time when a user is directed to different pages they view so that they don't have to logon again and again. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks..... -Kiran

If you are having the user's login thru a form, you could set session variables for each value upon successful login. <div class="msgQuoteWrap"><div class="msgCode"> <% '-- Set session variables Session("username") = username_value Session("userpass") = password_value '-- Get session variables username_value = Session("username") password_value = Session("userpass") %></div></div> <hr size="1" width="50%" align="left" />dotNetBB Forum Developer Building A Better Community, One Post At A Time <a href="http://www.dotnetbb.com" target="_blank">www.dotnetbb.com</a>Last Edited : 2/10/2003 4:14:45 PM GMT
