ASP.NET WebParts with an existing database

I

indyanguy01

We already have an application in production with a database (SQL
Server 2005) of users. We want to include a section in the application
that has Web Parts in them. I understand that out of the box,
aspnet_regsql installs a bunch of tables in the database.

My question is, can I seamlessly integrate WebParts into my
application using the existing database schema? For example, we
already have the following:

1. Table for storing user information (LoginId is a unique integer)
2. Tables and infrastructure to manage our own roles and security
rights.

I understand I can design my own custom personalization provider that
implements the PersonalizationProvider. However, I really haven't
found a way to integrate this with my existing application.

Any stepwise approach will be really appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks for the link. I did look at it earlier.

The MSDN link about creating a Custom Provider talks about how to use
a different datasource (XML or text) but doesn't really get into any
details on how to use it with a different underlying SQL schema.

Any resources/links/pointers for this will be really apprecaited.
