Is there a way, code wise to use cookies or whatever to restrict certain pages and to let view certain pages for certain groups of people?

The way I go about this is assigning permission levels from 0 to whatever. The lower the level the more access. 0 level would be the highest access and have all the permissions of the other level. A level 1 would have less access than 0 but more than 2.

If using Access, I general store this level in a cookie and set the level at login. This prevents multiple hits to the database just to check levels. If using SQL server, I build a stored procedure to check levels and return it with every page query.

Take LongBox.com, there are 20 different permission levels overall with 5 different permission structures. This is all controlled and configured by the database and every update to the website check you permission level.

I use a system similar to what jamal said but at login i set a session variable (as it is only one character it does not hit the server very hard, and this way you don't have to access the db on overy page). And on each page I put something like

<% If Session("UserLevel") < X then ' the user is not OK
Response.Redirect ("mypage.asp")
Else ' the user is OK
End if %>
