Error when compiling is Name 'Request' is not declared.

The code goes something like this:

Public Class sharedfunctions
    Shared Function getusername()
        Dim uid, username
        Const domainname = "CAREALOTPETS"
        Dim domainlen
        domainlen = Len(domainname)
        uid = LCase(Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER"))
        getusername = Mid(uid, domainlen + 2)
    End Function
End Class

Any ideas? Not sure how to declare 'request'.

If this is in a custom class (not in a page's code-behind), look at:

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request

You may have to add a reference to System.Web if it's not already there.

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request worked like a charm. Thank you.
