    Dim newCookie As HttpCookie

    newCookie = New HttpCookie("Books")


    newCookie.Values.Add("Name", TextBox1.Text)

    newCookie.Values.Add("FavBook", RadioButtonList1.SelectedItem.Text)

    newCookie.Expires = #12/12/2008#

    newCookie.Path = ("C:/Documents and Settings/ashok.I-WAVES.001/Cookies/")

    Response.Cookies.Add(newCookie)

    Label1.Text = "Cookies Created"

    Button1.Visible = False

    TextBox1.Visible = False

    Label2.Visible = False

    Label3.Visible = False

    RadioButtonList1.Visible = False

    End Sub

    But I cant retrieve the data .The below code is used to retrieve data.Can u tell whts the error in that coding and what reason?
    Protected Sub Retrieve_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Retrieve.Click

    Re: Error to retrieve data from cookies

    Why are you specifying a path?

    Compare your code to what's here to see if you're missing anything:

    Hi mendhak,

    Thanks for reply, Yes u found correctlt.Not different that code and u specified the link.I specified path because my system connected to server.The path is C:/Document and Settings/Administrator/Cookies/ they mentioned.

    I check the path.But cookies are currently stored in my system

    "C:/Documents and Settings/ashok.I-WAVES.001/Cookies" this path only.Is any problem to specify the path.I removed the path and checked it.The same think happened that previously i told.

    Thanks

    Next step. Try actually handling what you're catching.

    Dim x as String = ex.Message

    Then, step through your code and see what error is being caught, if any, and what the error message is.
