How to login from code view?

[Fabuloussites]

I know this must be simple, but i can't figure it out.

i'm creating user's from the code view using code similiar to this..

......
If Membership.RequiresQuestionAndAnswer Then
newUser = Membership.CreateUser( _
UserName.Text, _
Password.Text, _
Email.Text, _
Question.Text, _
Answer.Text, _
True, _
result)
Else
newUser = Membership.CreateUser( _
UserName.Text, _
Password.Text, _
Email.Text)
End If
If result = MembershipCreateStatus.Success Then
'log in user...
end if

i would like to login the user if the account is created. is ther some
library that i can include that has a login function?

maybe login(username,password)?

thanks for any help.

I think you can do it like this:

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie _
(UserName.Text, True)

Let us know if this helps?
