    When implementing ASP.NET forms authentication everything worked out just
    fine. I wanted to add the UserID and UserFName to my usage so I would have
    this information throughout their session without having to return to the
    database. I am upgrading from ASP so my first thought is Session(?UserID?)
    which works fine if the user stays in the same folder (members). But if
    they click a link outside that folder and return to that folder the Session
    values I had set are now gone.

    I use the return path code so when they click the login link it takes them
    to the default.aspx login page without logging in again. Like I said
    earlier, when they login the Session values work, and if they click links
    in the same folder (members) the Session values work, but if they go to
    another folder and return to the members folder the Session values are gone.

    Should I not use Session(?Value?)? How can I add other values to the
    FormsAuth Ticket we created and use in my pages to display User Name?
