Forms Authentication, 2 Applications sharing 1 Login ?

22
Hi, thanks for your time.

I have 2 almost identical asp.net (vb) applications. 1 Development and 1 Production.
They use forms authentication that is configured to run in SQL server. Both apps use the same aspnetdb database but have different application names.

The problem I have is:
I have an Identical login for each app (same username, same password), but If I change profile information for that user in the development app, the changes are reflected in production app. This isn't what I want.

Can someone shed some light on this please and thank you ?
