user comment display on asp.net page

I have an asp.ne开发者_如何学Got page which uses the asp membership control. I want to use the user comment field to hold an additional piece of information. I'm creating the user via the Web Site Administration Tool.

So how would I access the comment field and write it to the page?

Ok I'm not totally mad (well maybe but that's my state of mind!). the comment field lives in the aspnet_Membership table if you create a user and go to manage that user you see it has a Description labelled text box this maps through to the Comment field.

Maybe I'm using the wrong terms! sorry...

I don't quite understand what "comment field" you are talking about, because the default Web Site Administration Tool created users don't have such fields.

If you want to create such a field you would need to implement different MembershipProvider class or work with Profile properties

I would recommend you to read these articles first:

• Examining ASP.NET's Membership, Roles, and Profile
• Storing Additional User Information

EDIT:

For that particular "Description" field (wich I'm sure wasn't there when I was looking for it >.<), it really puts data into "aspnet_Membership" table "Comment" column. You can easily access it with MembershipUser class:

@{MembershipUser user = Membership.GetUser();}
@if ( user != null)
{
    @user.Comment
}

Razor syntax

EDIT

Membership.GetUser() support simple overrides so you don't really need to use Context.User.Identity.Name as parameter for currently logged-on user.

Gotta go with Ilya on this one... I'm not seeing a "comment" field in my instance of Web Site Adminstration.

But, a possible answer to your question would be ASP.NET Profiles: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/10/18/427754.aspx
