Membership class api

[Guest]

Hello,
I am using the Membership control in my asp.net application. When a person
registers, I set the account to not active.

CreateUserWizard1.Enabled = false;

Then I send them an email with a link for them to click on to activate their
account.

Got it all working, but do not know how to programaticly activate the
account.
I have to open the ASP.NET configuration web site and manually go to the
users account and click on 'active'.

How can I do this using C#?

Remember, when they click on the link in their email, it will open a page on
my site, but they are not logged in. So I need some way to look up the user
in my database, and then tell the membership api to find that user and set
them to active.

Thanks for your help...
Michael

Michael,
This is an ASP.NET question. If you ask it over at the asp.net group, either
I or somebody else will be happy to respond there.

Check out and use the aspnet_Membership_UnlockUser stored procedure and
others that were created and installed in your database when Membership was
configured by aspnet_regiis. Those stored procedures are how the Website
Administrator gets stuff done and we can reuse them in our own code.

You can learn a lot more about using C# to call stored procedures by
submitting the following search query to Google...

call stored procedure C# site:msdn2.microsoft.com

Peter's got a good point though about asking questions in other newsgroups
as you still have some design questions that still need to be answered.
