Hi,
I have a login script where username and password are checked against an Access database & each user has an access level, after users login, they are then redirected to a page which matches their access level. ie

If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "0" Then Response.Redirect"default_view.asp?name=" &strUserName End If
  If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "1" Then Response.Redirect"default_req.asp?name=" &strUserName End If
  If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "2" Then Response.Redirect"default_yield.asp?name=" &strUserName End If
  If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "3" Then Response.Redirect"default_auth.asp?name=" &strUserName End If
  If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "4" Then Response.Redirect"default.asp?name=" &strUserName End If
  If rsCheckUser("accesslevel") = "5" Then Response.Redirect"default_admin.asp?name=" &strUserName End If

My question is, how can I make sure that every page is protected, so that users cannot open pages that they do not have the correct access for?
I have tried to include this file, but I get an error msg:- (this file works when it isn't an include)

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides

Can I use different Session variables, for each accesslevel? or do I have to change the login script, so that I can use an include file??

TIA
Steve

It should work as an include file, as this is similar to what i do with one of my sites... what's the code you are using to include the file?

Hello,

You're help me too. In the ASP files, how can you tell it where to go, if you types in the wrong or right address?

Hope you can help me.

Thanks a million

Roland
