Best way to check a session var on each page?

I am setting a session var upon login that holds some data about the user.
I need to check on every page to make sure the data is populated so if a
user bypasses the login page they are redirected to login first! I know on
each page load I can do a check of the session var and redirect if it's gone
or the wrong value, but I'd like a way to do it from one location. What's
the recommended method for this type of thing?

Thanks
 
Jon,

Are you sure you are not duplicating the functionality already provided by
Forms authentication? If not, then do it in Application_AuthenticateRequest
method of your Global.asax.cs file.

That'll work. One question, what is the equivalent of the following in
VB.Net?

base.Load +=new EventHandler(CommonPage_Load);

Thanks!
