Storing additional user information with ASP.NET

[mazdotnet]

Hi guys,

I've just started using ASP.NET's membership feature and it all seems
pretty good. However, I need to have additional fields such as
Address, Postal Code, Country, State, City...etc... stored in another
table. The rows can potentially be over 1000000 rows. What's is the
best way to do this? Do I run Membership.CreateUser and then take the
User ID and store that in another table? Is there a better way? (must
be in another table)

Thank you
M.

This kind of additional user-specific info is normally stored via a Profile
provider. You can also write your own provider.
