Create User Wizard Control - Membership API

M

MSDN

Hello,

I am in the process of upgrading my eCommerce application to Asp.net 2.0.
One of the things that interested me was the whole membership API and tools
that tied into it. I want to migrate my existing userbase to that format.

One of the issues I am having, deals with the fact of collecting additional
information (such as address, phone number, etc.). The CreateUser control
does not have these fields. I have read where it is possible, but could
never figure out how to do it. I know I can inherit the Membership API
class and overload the methods with my own code so it works with my own
database schema (which is a whole can of worms by itself).

I know I can register my own custom membership provider using the
asp_regsql.exe (i think its called). It looks like it makes its own stored
procedures and table structure...I guess if I am writing my own SQL
functions to process the data input, I can ignore the membership provider
registration in the web.config since i am overloading and using my own.

So, my question is 2 fold i suppose. Any help would be outstanding!!!

thanks!

Eric
