Getting Logged on user name... 1

[WhiteTiger]

How can I get a username and use it to check if a person should go to 1 page or another and redirect them accordingly?

I need to check multiple user names Regards,

The following will get you a username in asp:

Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER&quot

Then you can build your logic to handle the redirection. If you don't have a lot of users then a simple select case statement would work. Or if the list is extensive, then perhaps a database with a list of usernames and places they are authorized to go.

hope this helps! Tazzmann
