provider for membership feature

[Carlos]

Hi all,

I decided to learn about the membership feature in asp .net 2.0, and was
able to use my local instance of sqlexpress to create an aspnetdb under my
app's App_Data directory. I used the wizard in the configuration tool to
create users and roles. However, I am not able to see this database using
management studio. I see that the aspnetdb.mdf and aspnet_log.ldf files are
properly located under the App_Data directory.

Can someone shed some light on this?

Thanks in advance,

Carlos

The SqlMembership provider in ASP.NET 2.0 uses a SqlExpress feature that
allows auto-attach of a MDB database file in the connection string.
For SQL 2005, you would need to actually physically attach the file.
