Hi, You can do this with the following code: HttpCookie _cookie1 = new HttpCookie("LocalComputer"); _cookie1.Values.Add("username", username); _cookie1.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(1); Response.Cookies.Add(_cookie1); And you can call this cookie with the following code: if (Request.Cookies["LocalComputer"] != null) { HttpCookie _cookie = Request.Cookies["LocalComputer"]; string username=_cookie["username"].toString(); }
