To create new user account programmatically with asp.net membership concept we need to use CreateUser method for that first design your aspx page like this
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>Programmatically Create Users in asp.net Membership</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td colspan="2"><b>Sign Up for New User Account</b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>UserName:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtUserName" runat="server"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rqfUserName" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtUserName" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Required" ForeColor="Red"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Password:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtPwd" runat="server" TextMode="Password"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtPwd" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Required" ForeColor="Red"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Confirm Password:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtCnfPwd" runat="server" TextMode="Password"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator id="PasswordConfirmRequiredValidator" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtCnfPwd" ForeColor="red" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Required" />
<asp:CompareValidator id="PasswordConfirmCompareValidator" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtCnfPwd" ForeColor="red" Display="Dynamic" ControlToCompare="txtPwd" ErrorMessage="Confirm password must match password." /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtEmail" Display="Static" ErrorMessage="Required" ForeColor="Red"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Security Question:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtQuestion" runat="server"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator4" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtQuestion" Display="Static" ErrorMessage="Required" ForeColor="Red"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Security Answer:</td>
<td><asp:TextBox ID="txtAnswer" runat="server"/></td>
<td><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator5" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtAnswer" Display="Static" ErrorMessage="Required" ForeColor="Red"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Create User" onclick="btnSubmit_Click" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><asp:Label ID="lblResult" runat="server" Font-Bold="true"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

After that in code behind add the following namespaces
C# Code
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Web.Security;
|
Now write the following code in code behind
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MembershipCreateStatus createStatus;
MembershipUser user = Membership.CreateUser(txtUserName.Text,txtPwd.Text,txtEmail.Text,txtQuestion.Text,txtAnswer.Text,true,out createStatus);
switch (createStatus)
{
//This Case Occured whenver User Created Successfully in database
case MembershipCreateStatus.Success:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Green;
lblResult.Text = "The user account was successfully created";
txtUserName.Text = string.Empty;
txtEmail.Text = string.Empty;
txtQuestion.Text = string.Empty;
txtAnswer.Text = string.Empty;
break;
// This Case Occured whenver we send duplicate UserName
case MembershipCreateStatus.DuplicateUserName:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "The user with the same UserName already exists!";
break;
//This Case Occured whenver we give duplicate mail id
case MembershipCreateStatus.DuplicateEmail:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "The user with the same email address already exists!";
break;
//This Case Occured whenver we send invalid mail format
case MembershipCreateStatus.InvalidEmail:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "The email address you provided is invalid.";
break;
//This Case Occured whenver we send empty data or Invalid Data
case MembershipCreateStatus.InvalidAnswer:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "The security answer was invalid.";
break;
// This Case Occured whenver we supplied weak password
case MembershipCreateStatus.InvalidPassword:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "The password you provided is invalid. It must be 7 characters long and have at least 1 special character.";
break;
default:
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red;
lblResult.Text = "There was an unknown error; the user account was NOT created.";
break;
}
}

VB.NET Code
Imports System.Drawing
Partial Class Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
End Sub
Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

Case MembershipCreateStatus.InvalidPassword
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red
lblResult.Text = "The password you provided is invalid. It must be 7 characters long and have at least 1 special character."
Exit Select
Case Else
lblResult.ForeColor = Color.Red
lblResult.Text = "There was an unknown error; the user account was NOT created."
Exit Select
End Select
End Sub
End Class

Here don’t forgot to set database connection settings in web.config file
First set the connectionstring like this
<connectionStrings>
<add name="dbconnection" connectionString="Data Source=SureshDasari;Initial Catalog=AspMembership;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>
|
After that write the following code in system.web section
<membership>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</membership>
<profile>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</profile>
<roleManager enabled="false">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</roleManager>
|
After that run your application and create users using our own registration form
Demo
 |
In above demo if you observe we are passing parameters like Username, password, Email, security question and security answer.
If we don’t want security question and answer options and we need to allow users to enter his own password without any restrictions for that we need to configure some properties in web.config file like requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false", minRequiredPasswordLength="6" and minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" to set those properties check this post solve password length problem.
If we remove Security Question and answer options then we need to use different CreateUser method that contains different types of overloaded methods those are

Can i add new label and text box and save it to database in aspnet_Membership table
Hi Suresh
Can we implement ASP.NET membership with SHA256.
We are doing development for security auditing . Auditing company requires hased password(SHA256) using javascript at client side. We have save password in SHA256 format but not able to access the same password using login form.
One more thing , initially we were using the ASP.NET membership. But we were unable to find the password format whether it is in SHA256 format or in other format. That's why we have stored password in new tables other than Membership table.
Hi,
Getting time out error in membership.CreateUser(username,password) when creating mutiple user same time
