Joe,

This series has been great! so far, so good, but... how about showing an example of extending membership by using new properties? I mean adding a some new attributes to certain table and then being able to read such values and then displaying them in a web page?

:-)

Felix, you would use the profile provider for that. There are other videos showing that on asp.net and articles on msdn. If you do not want to use the blob approach you can also use the table/sproc profile provider. For a start it would be better to do this than add additional columns to the membership tables otherwise you could go over the page size (in sql server) and this will effect performance as sql server will split pages. For this reason it is better to encapsulate additional profile data in a different table and FK it to a particular userID.

just an idea ... moving this video to #8 from #10 would make a bit more sense.

Hi Joe and all friends,

Need your help to have some understanding.

I have an application at ASP 3.0, planning to move it to .net 3.5 with membership.

The question is, should i keep membership table in separate database and application at separate or all should be in one.

If separate database, then how we create referncial integrity b/w two separate database using userid field.

If same database for membership and application, then which table should be used to create refrencial intrigity.

Please guide.

Thank you

MTA.

Nice. Thanks Joe. I wish "whoever" would fix the issue with the Silverlight Player though which effects the many users with a 2nd monitor. Its great to have the video running full screen on a second monitor, but as soon as you click anywhere on the main monitor, the video shrinks back down to tiny size - Grrrrr!!!! I notice several Flash video players (including the BBC) are now beginning to fix this.
