How do I get the UserName from UserId by the following code?
[Code]....
I am setting up membership and rolls for a small forum site that im working on. All this info is stored in the standard aspnetdb database. When a user is logged in and saves a post to the forum, their UserId is saved to a database in unique identifier format such as: b40e346d-0399-4bbb-90ee-c7c440726cfd. I want to set up a web service so that the name of the author of each post can be clicked on to retieve details about him or her. Rather than passing along the UserId of the author to the web service, I want to pass along the UserName and use that to retrieve the user's Id, which will in turn be used to query the database. I cant seem to find info on how to do this. I can find how to retrieve this kind of info for the current logged in user, but not any or all users in general.

Can anyone show me some code, on how I get <%#Eval("UserId") %> to be the username instead of UserId.
I'm wondering is there any way i could get UserName or UserId for current User from LoginName control in ASP.NET ?
View 2 RepliesSo I'm almost finished my project but I'm stuck. In my application's database I save some records that contain the currently logged in user's userID - and so when it comes to displaying these records, I've been just been outputting the userID whilst developing the rest of the application. Through googling I've found this line of code that will get the a username based on a userID:
Dim membershipUser As MembershipUser = Membership.GetUser(New Guid(userGUID))
Which works great if I can supply it with a GUID - but I'm struggling to see how I can use this line of code if for example I want to show the usernames for comments on an article which are contained in a repeater control.Maybe it would be simpler to just merge my application's database with the asp.net membership database (ASPNETDB.mdf) so I can just select the username in SQL instead - but I'm not even sure how to do that.
I have seen a lot of question asking about known user name and how to retrieve UserId accordingly. How about the other way around?
For some reason I have UserId, but I don't want to include aspnet_User table into my data entities. Is there any way I can retrieve the user name without querying against aspnet_User table?
i 'm creating a website. i create a login form. after login my session will be start and all page of user profile will check first is session istart. i have stored userid in session for identify user. But i want to username of that userid. Remaiber username and userid are different. and i want to show only username on welcome tab.
e.g. userid= rksaini89
username= ramkrishn
so i want to show like this "welcome ramkrishn" on my home page and other many places on different forms. my confusion is that how to get username acording userid and where to keep store it. i can get it from database according session but i'm confused where to keep it so i can use it everywhere on my website.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to match a username to a userid which are in 2 different sql tables. Here is my select statement:
SELECT aspnet_Users.UserName
FROM aspnet_Users INNER JOIN
aspnet_starterkits_Projects ON aspnet_Users.UserName = aspnet_starterkits_Projects.ProjectManagerId
When I run this i get an error message: "Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier" Is there anyway around this? Or a different select statement etc?

View 10 RepliesWhen I create the user I am also pulling the UserID as I need it to enter this into a secondary table. However, the number that seems to come back is different then what ends up getting stored in the membership table ? can someone tell me why that is and what I might be doing wrong ? what i have noticed is that it truncates the first 3 characters when it is returned back?

How can I get UserID in next steps of wizards other than the first one ?
View 4 RepliesI'm just curious, why its not bigint or int ? is that because GUID is easy to generate ?
View 8 RepliesWe have a system where an administrator can login and create other users. If the administrator creates another user, then logs out and immediately logs back in with the new user information the UserID Guid is not available. If you log out and login again with the new username it works, or if you simply refresh the page it works.
Why does it not work on the first run?
Is there any way to get the UserId of the curently loggedin user? Please help.
View 5 RepliesThe app requires user (mainUser) to login. Once logged in, the user can create users (subUser). I use the CreateUserWizard Control for this. I need to get the UserID of the subUser. HOw can I do this. I'm not sure of how to do it without confusing ASP of which userId I want. Is this a case for sessions? Or is there a more direct way?
View 2 RepliesIn one of my web app's pages, the code behind needs to grab the UserId of the person logged in, so that it can then be inserted into a table which was added to the original aspnetdb.mdf. This table contains a column with a uniqueidentifier primary key which is in direct relationship with the aspnet_Users table; however I seem to have trouble retrieving the UserId. This table contains the additional information of a user which is not included in the provider, and it has a one-to-one relationship with aspnet_Users.
I hope this makes sense. I haven't written any code for it yet; I'm only at the thinking part of this stage. But my mind keeps going blank.(perhaps I need a break from the solution???).
I am using C# in my Web app's code behind.
I'm using membership and roles in a Silverlight Business Application. There is a RegistrationOperation_Completed event in the RegistrationForm.xaml.cs code behind file with:
else if (operation.Value==CreateUserStatus.Success)
{
this.registrationData.CurrentOperation=WebContext.Current.Authentication.Login(, . . .);
. . .
}
where I would like to obtain the UserId that was created for the newly registered user so that I can use it as the key to populate a userdetail table. How do I get it? All I have is the UserName that was used to register the new user.
WebContext.Current.User does not appear to return the UserId.
I have created my own form for creating a new user and collecting data, I just need to do one thing, find the UserID of the newly created user before they have logged in

How do I get the UserID of the just created user?
I'm trying to access a user's userId in the login forms user logged in event, but I keep getting an error.
If I attach the code to a button which is clicked when a user is already logged in, I get no problems, it's only when I try to execute it within the user logged in event that I get the problem.
Below is my code with the part that causes the error commented out:
[Code]....
I'm guessing that I'm trying to access the userid before it is available, i.e. before they're logged in, but the event as I understand it is fired immediately AFTER they've logged in.
In which case, when is the earliest point that I can access a logged in user's userId (I'd like to tie this in to the point at which they login)
I'm using the membership class in my application, but when I assign a Role to a User it create again the same user with other ID.
This is my Web.Config:
