I am using my master page to always make sure that the User object is
not null in Session. If it is null, I redirect them to the login page.
Some of my child pages utilize the User object. I was assuming that
the master page Page_Load would be called before ChildPage_Load
methods, but it is the opposite. Is this normal?

I need something to check that my User Session isn't null before the
page loads. Any advise? Thanks,

Jonathan

Use the Page_Init event in your MasterPage

that worked.
