HI
Thanks for your reply . Iam new to dotnet. Can you tell me clearly what has to be added where ?
I added
LinkButton1.Attributes.Add("onclick", " alert('\nYou have already taken this test');")
in the page_load event and also i made the change as shown below
Protected Sub LinkButton1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LinkButton1.Click
sql = "select LS from Tests_Attended where Emp_ID = " & Session("EmpID")
cmd = New OleDbCommand(sql, con)
ds = cmd.ExecuteReader
If ds.HasRows = True Then
ds.Read()
If ds.Item("LS") = True Then
LinkButton1.Attributes.Add("onclick", " alert('\nYou have already taken this test');return false;") Else
sql = "update Tests_Attended set LS = 1 where Emp_ID= " & Session("EmpID")
cmd = New OleDbCommand(sql, con)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Server.Transfer("opener1.aspx")
End If
Else
sql = "insert into Tests_Attended values(" & Session("EmpID") & ",1,0,0,0)"
cmd = New OleDbCommand(sql, con)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Server.Transfer("opener1.aspx")
End If
End Sub
It works in the first click now

but it works both if if-condition passes or fails.
Please modify the code & show me regarding what has to be added where.
Thanks
