Managing Users and Roles 5. January 2007 Vishwa .NET (10) The following example will demonstrate as how to manage registered users, activate or deactivate them assign or remove role(s) in ASP.Net.

I have created two page, which resides in Admin area of web site. You will be required to make some changes such as Master Page File, Namespace, Base Page and Content Place Holder ID etc. in order to properly compile and work with you project. The first page will allow you to search and find one or more registered users and second page will allow you to activate and assign a role. [More]
