Session variable on log-in page

Thanks, I go for the unique username solution, seems like that is preferable.
THANKS!

i'd have unique user names and use it later for whatever you need.
there's a server behavior for that: User authentication > Check User
Name or somethink like this

anyway you could try this if you prefer the ID field:

If Not MM_rsUser.EOF Or Not MM_rsUser.BOF Then
' username and password match - this is a valid user
Session("MM_Username") = MM_valUsername
Session("ID") = MM_rsUser.Fields.Item("ID").Value

...
End If
