    I used Bob Tabor's Quiz Engine from the ASP.NET getting started videos. Most everything is working great, was able to deploy the application to a remote server, and I was able to make modifications. The problem I am having is, after I use the login function on the site to create an account, the application encrypts my password and I have to use the encrypted form of the password to log back in. When I use the forgot my password function, it emails me the encrypted password. I use to be able to cut and past the encrypted password in the password field and log in. Now it sends me a diffeent encrypted password everytime I use the forgot my password function. Please Help!!!

    Big Thanks!

    Thank you Yasser. The membership code insert helped, the password is no longer encrypted but now it won't let me log in. I created a new user, retrieved the password, logged out, but was not able to log back in to the new account.
