you should create a column in tblconfiguration with name : online_users and write asp codes to add online users in this row and then : if activeusers > online_users then update this column ... If I have free times , I write this mod ... |

I don't want to use database for this purpose as it will increase server load, what I think. Is there any way that I can implement it using Application and Session objects? ------------- The Judgement Day |

Application objects will only last until the next iis restart so the max user data's got to be written somewhere - in either a text file or in a db. Doing I/O on a text file is going to be more expensive than using a DB.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |
