I don't know ASP to be able to help, but on line 21, wouldn't you want to use == to compare the values to, as opposed to = which assigns the value? This is to my knowledge of what each operator means, and the fact I don't know ASP could mean that certain things are different to what I know.

So instead of having ((Username.Text = dsLogin.FieldValue("Username")) you'd have ((Username.Text == dsLogin.FieldValue("Username")), as an example.

Thanks for the reply. The error is on line 21, i did what you suggested but it came up with another error on the same line (BC30201: Expression expected.) I have to go back and look at it probable missed something some where.

I'm in the same boat as shameless in that i don't know ASP. But you have the "=" problem in 2 places in that conditional. Also, since i don't know if ASP is case-sensative or not, i see you at least have a consistensy problem.

If IsPostBack Then
' authenticate user
if ((Username.Text = dsLogin.FieldValue("Username"))...

The i's in "if" are different case. Also, the second conditional doesn't have a "Then" after it. Again, it would help if i know more about ASP (i doubt anybody here really does know ASP), but these are semi-common problems across the languages i know.

I got it to work, i had to download a modified DreamweaverCtrls.dll file. Thanks for the suggestions
