How to write session timeout in asp.net

Question

i am new to asp.net..please help me to write code for setting session timeout and how to implement in all pages,i tried out using web config method,but not getting,i am nearing to deadline. This is my code

Where is the code, what did you try and what do you meand "but not getting"? Have you activated session state at all? The default timeout is 20 minutes, so you should be able to read anything you store in Session state for at least 20 minutes. If you can't either your code is wrong or you haven't activated Session state at all. — Panagiotis Kanavos

From code:

Session.Timeout = 60; // this will set 60 min timout

From config:

<sessionState timeout="60" />
