how to get current user id

Hi,

I have an application from which a user creates a "model". When it is
time to save it in the DB, I need to know who created it (I have a
field 'model_iduser' in my table).

Before using asp.net 2.0 membership system, I had no problems getting
the user id and saving it. Now, with all this complicated membership
provider stuff, I'm stucked on how to get the user's id...anybody can
help me with this one?

Thanks a lot!

Its in the aspnet_Users table. The hardest part is that the id is
represented as a GUID which makes reading and referencing confusing at
design-time.
Its often easier however to store data in the Profile which enables us to
use our own terminology and type.
