Check If Logged In

[Guest]

Hi All,

This must be a simple question, but I just can't figure it out. I want to
know if the user is logged in programmatically. I tried to use the
LoginStatus control, but of course that only has a LoggedOut event, not a
LoggedIn event (why?).

If anybody has a sample, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks,
PAGates

How about Request.IsAuthenticated?

It looks like that's what the LoginStatus uses to determine what to display.

"The LoginStatus control has two states, logged in to the Web site and
logged out of the Web site, determined by the IsAuthenticated property of
the Page object's Request property."
