It doesn't solve my problem
Could you add more details?
There are times when the Session variable really doesn't exist.
namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
// Create a static class that holds the user name and password and any other variables needed across the application.
public static class Session
{
public static string username;
}
}
// login click event
private void log_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//set the values after login like
Session.username = usr_txt.Text;
//Now you can access the UserID simply from anywhere in your code
MessageBox.Show(Session.username);
}
