Hi
In VS 2002 to get a user name i user user.identity.name and in 2005 this no longer works.

um, as far as i know it still exists. i use it when i use forms auth all the time.

if VS2005 took it out, thank golly gosh i never used a tool like that!

be sure you are importing System.Web and System.Web.Security

if you are doing windows auth, that wont help you anyway, you'll need System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity

other possibilities, are HTTPContext.User.Identity.Name...

if mbrios post worked, you left out the Inherits System.Web.UI.Page i think.
