    Resolved [RESOLVED] [2005] Persisting Session Variable?

    I am currently developing an application and I am using session variables to move data across my pages.

    However, I have run into a problem. On my login page, I declare

    Code:
    me.session("typeofuser")=cboUserType.Text"
    I am also sending another variable, "CurrentUser", in the same session variable.

    My problem is that when I move to another page, it's as if the next page cannot pick up the typeofuser variable.

    For example, on the Page_load of page2, I enable a different label based on the type of user. At this point, the variable is acknowledged and I get the correct label to show on the page.

    However, when I attempt to use the variable in subsequent procedures on page2, the variable is not picked up. For instance, I use this in a seperate sub called "LoadFormContents":
    Code:
    if me.session("typeofuser") = "Admin" then
    Adminbutton.Enabled = True
    Elseif me.session("typeofuser") = "User" then
    adminbutton.enabled = false
    Else
    adminbutton.enabled=false
    When I step through the code, the first two if statements return false, as if the session variable doesn't even exist.

    Anyone have this problem before? I know I'm probably missing something simple.

    NVM....

    Evaluation actually works now, even though I didn't change anything. Wow.
