Try this

C#

if (HttpContext.Current.User != null)
               {
                   strName = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString();
               }

Solution 3

general:
from page1:

Session["em"] = TextBox1.Text.ToString();

textbox1 has the user name from page 1.

from page2:

string text2 = (String)Session["em"];

Solution 4

To save the username in default.aspx use the following code

Session["name"] = txtname.text.ToString();

To retrieve the username from session in the page second.aspx use the following code

string fullname = (string)Session['name'];
