Limit User

[John Peter]

How can i limit the number of users on my .ASP page, i want only one user to
be using the page at a time,

The query i have on my page is big and takes a lot of my system resources.

<%
Application.Lock
if Application("InUse")="Yes" then
Response.Write "In Use"
Response.End
else
Application("InUse")="Yes"
end if
Application.Unlock
%>

I disagree with Tom.

If the Application is locked while the code is processing no other client
will get to the application to even get a busy message.

Try this:

At the Top of the Page Place this Code:

If Not Application("PageInUse") Then
Application.Lock
Application("PageInUse") = True
Application.UnLock
Else
Response.Write "Page In Use"
'Redirect if needed
Response.End
End If

At the Bottom of the Page Place this Code:

Application.Lock
Application("PageInUse") = False
Application.UnLock
