You pretty much have it right there, minus a vital part of the syntax for the Instr() function. The Instr() function doesn't return a boolean value, rather it returns NULL or some integer because it is identifying where in a string a substring begins.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
if Instr(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER"),"your_URI") < 1 then

   '// insert code that denies access, or redirects

end if

(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
