hi hi! thanks for the reply Paladine about the table issue. The next thing i want to do is compare a username to a username in the database.
From this line: FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(txtUserName.Text, False)
If i set to say: RedirectFromLoginPage(txtUserName.Text, True)
what does that do? and how can I compare this username in another page?
What I am trying to do is:
if the username = <temp username> then
load an empty form
else if username =<member's username> Then
Load form with member's details already there

im trying to create an update details page.
no idea how to access username thats being passed from the RedirectFromLoginPage...
cheers
