Hi

I'm trying to create a system for user accounts to login to certain parts of my site. I have done it before creating everything from scratch in classic ASP, but found the providers in ASP.NET very useful.

However the built-in ready to go provider doesn't have the user information in a neet table like i want, but the sandbox project sqltableprofileprovider does have exactly that.

But, i'm afraid i can't seem to figure it out on my own, so a little help from you guys would be highly appreciated. I'm using VB and i have seen that there is an adoptation of the code for VB.

- what do i need to add in the web.config?

-which tables to i need to add in my DB?

-what files should be placed where (i.e in the App_code folder and so on)

- If i want my users to store information about their cat's or dog's name, what and where do i need to change in the code to add that field?

All help extremly welcome 'cus i'm stuck and i really like this provider

Hi,

I think this is a problem related with custom profile properties.

You can use the attribute called inherits on the <profile> element. This attribute instructs ASP.NET to autogenerate a class for the Profile property by inheriting from a custom base class. You can write your class which inherits from ProfileBase and save it in App_Code directory.Any public properties defined on a custom base class are visible and useable from the Profile property. You may visit the following material which is a step-by-step tutorial on custom profile setting.

Hope that helps. Thanks.
