I've designed a page to show user data. Acces is restricted by username/password authentication.

If I choose the menu-link to this page without logging in, I should be redirected. This does not happen. Instead, The page tries to build a recordgroup, which depens on being logged on, with the following error: servletexception: before start of resultset.

any suggestions? pleez help! I need to fic this today...

create another field in your username/pasword database, access level and asign each log in account an access level say 1 for admin 3 for normal users.
Then set the restricted pages to access based on username password and access level and set a redirect for wrong access level this should work the way you want it.

head hurts, 'mental note to self, stop banging head !'

The problem remains the same when I restrict user-access with username/password/acceslevel validation....

Thanks anyway, more suggestions welcome

Have you tried placing username and password into sessions and then placing code like:

<%
if (Session("username" = "" or Session("password" = "" then
Response.Redirect("login.asp"
end if
%>

before the rest of the code?
