How Do I: Create a Custom Membership Provider?

A Membership Provider allows a web application to store and retrieve membership data for a user, and the standard ASP.NET Membership Provider uses pre-defined SQL Server tables. In this video we learn how to create a custom membership provider that uses custom SQL Server tables separate from the pre-defined tables used by the standard provider. The principles covered in the video will apply to creating custom membership providers using other databases such as Access or Oracle. After learning to create the custom membership provider, we learn how to configure the provider in a web application, and see a demonstration of creating a new user and authenticating the new user with the custom membership provider.

Can someone explain to me how to create the very first project that Chris starts working off of? In my website, when I choose add new item and add class, I don't get all the files nested under what I created. Therefore, I think I need to create that very first file but it's not explained how to do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

How can I create my own createuserwizard. I don't want the security question/answer as part of the membership, nor do I want the email, I want just username, password and pass these values to the provider.
