Wait a minute. Be more explicit please. Are you saying you have tried this?
<%
session("levelAcc") ="test"
Response.Write session("levelAcc")
%.

Or are you talking about setting the session variable value on one page and
attempting to display it on another? If so, at least make sure the above
test page successfully displays the word "test" when run.



Oh yes, they work, you must make a mistake wat you are not telling.

Like your browser having the session cookies switched off or not
using an ASP enabled server.

sherlock, thanks for helping...no, the cookies and server is good, on
this page in question when i do this:  <%= request.querystring
("level") %> from a querystring, it works.

That proves nothing. The querystring does not rely on cookies - it is just
taken from the url. Check out these articleshttp://classicasp.aspfaq.com/general/why-won-t-my-session-variables-s...http://classicasp.aspfaq.com/general/why-do-my-session/application-va...

Make sure  you have created an application for your website in IIS Manager

OK, I was establishing the session object after a redirect to the
landingpage, so it wasn't reading it...i made sure the directory live
was set as an application...now everything works, thanx!
