    So, I've been developing with asp for years now and I finally want to make the switch to asp.net using vb. I have what seems to be a simple task.

    1. Allow users to register on site (as users)
    2. Allow user to log in to site (3 members - users, affiliates, admin)
    3. Provide a pretty detailed "profile" of said users personal abilities
    4. Make profiles searchable (by affiliates)

    I'm stuck on how to make a registration page. I've fiddled with the CreateUserWizard, but it seems to limited as I'd also like to collect more information during registration. I've read a little about profiles and defining my extra info in the web.config file, but i'm still clueless.

    Do I have to use the CreateUserWizard? What if I create my own user management system?

     If anyone has a tutorial or a working example, that would be great.

    Thank you,
    Daniel Severns

    Hi,

    I haven't done the exactly same thing but  the following article explains how to overide default methods of the membership provider to meet your own needs.

    You may be able to customize the registration wizard.
