Sure, just use a variable:<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>Session(varName)</font id=code></pre id=code>the variable could be something from the querystring, a value from the database, I do this same thing for my authentication system...
each user has one to many "permissions" so when the person logs in, I loop through the recordset and do<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>do while not rs.eof
session(rs("permissionName") = true
loop</font id=code></pre id=code>Then I protect pages like this<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>if session("admin" &lt;&gt; true then
response.redirect("deny.asp"
end if</font id=code></pre id=code>, that way, I can have any number of permission levels I want...
