MembershipProvider/session

[Diego]

I've created a Custom MembershipProvider, in the user creation i have to
return somehow the ProviderUserKey but inside the MembershipProvider I have
no access to the session to store the info.
Any suggesions appreciated.
Thanks, Diego

As long as your provider is running on same thread as the request you can
access Session by using the HttpContext.Current property.

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["MyUserKey"] = "wfobertson"

HTH,

I think you have misunderstood what ProviderUserKey is supposed to be in
a MembershipProvider. It's is a unique identifier for the user in your database
that's potentially different that the username. The SqlMembershipProvider
uses a GUID column in the database.

I understood I needed it to create a new record in a table linked to my
user.
