The message looks reasonably clear; you do not have a variable called txtUserName. You are also creating your SQL commands in a dangerous way (string concatenation) which can lead to SQL injection, and the total destruction of your database.

1 solution

As Richard MacCutchan suggests, please read this: How to: Protect From Injection Attacks in ASP.NET[^], especially Step 4. Use Command Parameters for SQL Queries.

Then check this line:
C#
sql = "exec Logon'" + txtUserName.text + "', '" + txtPassword.text + "'";

Does txtUserName and txtPassword is the name of TextBox control? If yes, try this:
C#
String uName = Me.txtUserName.Text;
String uPass = Me.txtPassword.Text;
