Get the name of the User in Session or from

HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name

and show through out the Session.

for this you have to maintain a session object

Syntax Session["object_name","object_value"]
Session.Add("uid",txt_username);

now you can set label on every page using this code

label1.text=Session["uid"].tostring();

Use session store user name in session and get that user name on master page
then you can see user name or any other information which you store in session on every page.

You can use session & querying string.

**session**

Session["username"]= txtusername.Text;

**querying string**

Passing variables between pages using QueryString[^]

This would be easier if you use master page in your project , and a dedicated label to display the username in the same master page.

After successful login you can pass the username to a session and pass this session value to the label text.Refer the below code;

if login is successful add the following codein your logic

C#

Session["username"]= txtusername.Text;

And in the master page page load event.

C#

lbl_user_name.Text = Session["username"].ToString();

In this way you can see the username in all the pages in which you are applying the above used masterpage.
