The session variables can't store objects or arrays though, right?
If they could I would be all set.

btw, how much info are you storing in this object?
theres some really cool stuff you can do with .NET's built in security IF the data isn't that much....
i use FormsAuthentication to store Roles, Username, UserID, TimeOffset, StateTheyLiveIn and something else which i forget right now...... and its near-mindless code to use once set up :)

I have 2 different class objects.
One class collects information about a hotline call. It has 16 properties. These properties are collected in pieces as the user progresses through the wizard. Some of the information cannot be obtained until the user is finished (example, call_end is the time the user completes the call).
The other other class is an Entity (essentially, a person), which has 20 properties. There can be up to 3 objects of this type per project depending on the choices that the user selects while stepping through the wizard.
The reason that I opted to go for the wizard type format was that the UI dynamically adapts depending on the options the user selects. I had previously only worked on applications of this nature using JSP and Java. I think there is some different type of threading ability there because I don't remember any issues like this involving multiple users corrupting each other's data.

Have you tried the cache features of .NET? Those are really cool.

What kind of information do you need to save?
What "properties" do You have in your "person object"?
If You only need to store information like Username and if the user is Authenticated the HttpContext.User.Identity is Enough and is global
How do You get information to Your Personobject?
If it is with a login, what type of Login do You use? FormsAuthentication?
Lots of questions back ... but if we get answers to them we have a lot easier to "solve" your problem

read his last reply, he's storing a whole hell of a lot more information than just username
