Hello,

Is there a way to create a user using Membership.CreateUser for another application?

I have tho websites (A and B) and when I create a user for website A I need a user to be created B also. I can't link them to use the same database. Is there a way to specify the application or the database where a user should be created. I thought this issue would be fairly common, but can't find any clues anywhere.

All help much appreciated.

why not use the same membership database for both applications?

Hi,
Thanks for you reply. As I mentioned in my post, I can't do that (not allowed).

I think you can only do that if you specify another Provider. Is accessing the other database from code allowed? Another option would be to write a database trigger on A (assuming they share a local user).

Using a second membership provider to connect to the other website's database worked.

Thank You very much.
