Membership Profile Property retrieval

Question

I am using Membership in .net web application. I have the following web.config configuration...

  <profile ...>

      .....

          <properties>
               <add name="FirstName"/>
               <add name="LastName"/>
               <add name="DateOfBirth" type="DateTime"/>
               .....
          </properties>
  </profile>

I inserted data using the following code segment, which affected the aspnet_profile database table.

    dynamic profile = ProfileBase.Create("Username");
    profile.Initialize("Username", true);
    profile.FirstName = "someFirstName";
    profile.LastName = "someLastName";
    profile.Save();

Now please anyone suggest me how to retrieve this data.

Answer 1

Now please anyone suggest me how to retrieve this data.

You can use System.Web.Profile.ProfileManager and then its API like FindProfilesByUserName(), GetAllProfiles() etc.

Here is already a solved thread.

string Firstname = ProfileBase.Create("UserName").GetPropertyValue("FirstName").toString();
