Send Parameter When Redirecting to a new page

I get a userId in the Default page, where I connect to the database(Oracle if it's interesting).I want to keep this userId and use it in the pages I open. I need it to compare with a combobox SelectedItem.Value. And this combobox is found almost in all the pages in the web site.How can I send this UserId as a parameter? Or is there a place where I can keep this variable and use it when I need. I'm sure it's very common and I wonder what the common and best way is.

You can send it as a querystring parameter, but the best way to keep the value in memory is with a session variable

As others said you can store variables in Session. But if you want to save information about user "Microsoft way", best is to implement MembershipUser and MembershipProvider classes.

There are multiple ways:

One, you can simply put it in the session and use it everywhere for the user session.

Second, you can pass it explicitly using a post or querystring. Using this option will need you to specify it all redirections.

If you're needing it in (almost) every page, I think Session would be a good place to put the variable.

The Session would be a good place for a variable like a UserID.
