Hi,

I've got a requirement to populate User Profiles with additional data.  For example the Organisation Tab shows a value for Department.  I note that the web.config includes a <properties> section under <profile>.  Is it simply a case of editing the fields in this section of the web.config (surely it can't be THAT easy ?).

The values from this list then appear in the PropertyNames field of the aspnet_Profile table, however the data does not appear in the PropertyValuesString field.

Do I need to edit the part of the core which populates this data ? (and where is it ?)

Would I then need to edit the core Profile page to enable it to display the new fields ?

I've used Department in my example, but I'm fairly certain they're going to want a photo in there too at some point.  Will the addition of a binary datatype field cause additional complications ?

I note the PropertyValuesBinary field in the aspnet_Profiles table.  Is that likely to work the same way but just with the web.config entry for the field as Type="Binary" ?

Any light you can shed on this would be much appreciated

I think that would be usefull, if there is please let me know too.

I updated (added to) adduser sp :

If @Displayname = ''
BEGIN
   select @Displayname = @FirstName + ' ' + @LastName
END
