[QUOTE=dpyers]

There's few posts around her by folk who have done it. I believe one of the issues that neede to addressed when merging/integrating is the encrypted passwords.

Disabling the encryption is the best way to avoid that.]]> Tue, 20 Jan 2004 18:41:53 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/integrating-existing-membership-database_topic9081_post48033.html#48033 <![CDATA[Integrating Existing membership database? : I&#039;ve done it sucessfully...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/integrating-existing-membership-database_topic9081_post48031.html#48031 Author: ljamal

I've done it sucessfully twice with SQL Server. To my knowledge there's no documentation of the process. I use a join on the members table and update the register table to update the parts of the tables that cannot be updated via a join.

If you need any help, send me a PM and I'll do what I can

If you do a search, make sure you select the dropdown for searching message body. It defaults to searching the topic header.

Okay, if it's been done (successfully), I'll give it a shot. Any
documentation/notes available?
I'll post my efforts in this thread.]]> Tue, 20 Jan 2004 18:18:13 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/integrating-existing-membership-database_topic9081_post48028.html#48028 <![CDATA[Integrating Existing membership database? : Yes, it is possibel but it is...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/integrating-existing-membership-database_topic9081_post48027.html#48027 Author: ljamal

Yes, it is possibel but it is not simple. 
4-5 hours of work merging the database and editing register.asp.

I'm shopping around for an ASP-based message board for a friend/
client. He already has members registered via an Access2000 db. I
like the format of your forums, but before I start downloading and
tinkering, I need to know if it is feasable to use an existing
membership database with your product. I don't want to start
tearing into his code/db too much. It is a simple database with
username,password, generic profile info, and level of
membership(tier) fields, nothing too fancy.]]> Tue, 20 Jan 2004 17:06:42 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/integrating-existing-membership-database_topic9081_post48024.html#48024
