Has anyone come up with a feasible way to trade session variables back and forth between .asp and .aspx pages? So far all of the documentation we have found says it is not possible. I understand how the session information works on both sides, what I need is that link between the 2 that allows access from one page to the next.<BR><BR>Thanks<BR><BR>J.R.They are two entirely different applications....Therefore, you're SOL. You need to find another way to uniquely indetify your users....IE cookies, or you could pass querystring info to let one app know that this is such and such user from the other app.<BR><BR>As far as actually sharing sessions....You're right. I had a MS guy tell me don't even think about it, 'cause it just doesn't work like that.That is pretty much what we had figured. Our Microsoft Support Rep is actually looking in to it for us to see if there is any other way. Cookies are a possible way of handling things, however, we have had problems with timeout settings not working and other issues with cookies that have caused us to not use them for anything. We can't rely on their settings to work. .NET may solve some of those issues with cookies so we are looking in to that. Hopefully something will be changed down the road that will help us out.<BR><BR>Thanks for your reply...<BR><BR>J.R.
