How do I display "Not Authorized" to an authenticated user

Discussion How do I display "Not Authorized" to an authenticated user

    I'm building a WEB site using VS 2010, SQL Server 2008, and .NET 4.0.  I've set up users, roles, and access rules.  For navigation, I'm using a tree view.  If an authenticated user clicks a page on the tree view that they are not authorized to use, I want to preferably give them a "You are not authorized to see page "xxx" message or alternatively redirect them to a standard error.aspx page that would display a similar message.  I have considered using Treeview trimming, but want them to know that they were intentionally denied access in case there was an administrative error in assigning them to a role or applying an Access rule.  Any suggestions/ideas will be greatly appreciated............Thank you!  Phil Hoop
