Can you be a little more clear?

As Paul said, you're not being very clear - however I think this may point you in the direction you want to go.... Dim instance As HttpSessionState = HttpContext.Current.Session Dim value As NameObjectCollectionBase.KeysCollection = instance.Keys Dim key As String For Each key In value Response.Write("Session(""" & key & """) = " & CStr(Session(key)) & "
") Next (You will need to amend this if any of your session variables contain values that can't be converted to strings...)

You can get what's put into session: Session["HelloWorld"] = "Hello, my name is Tim."; Response.Write(Session("HelloWorld")); You should see "Hello, my name is Tim." Or are you asking about enumerating the Session collection?

How are you adding to Session ? If you are adding ussing index then you should retrive in same way (providing the same index) If you are giving a name(as key) while adding but while retriving you don't have that name then you can't get as there might gave n number of key value pairs in the Session By the way why you want to retrive the name from session ? Session.Keys will return all the Keys (name) stored in that session
