I am going to create an asp site that allows the users to fill out
application information. Their personal information will be stored server
side in a SQL 2005 database and they can come back to the site later and
repopulate the fields with their information by using a login (email
address/password). Are their any templates available for sites that include
basic registration?

Thanks,
Ryan
 
Hi Ryan,

Thank you for your post.

Based on my understanding, you're using ASP.NET 2.0 and your question is
about:
1) How to let the user register and fill out application information on the
website;
2) When the user returns back and login, how to retrieve the filled
information;
If I've misunderstood anything, please feel free to post here.

The user registration and login can be implemented using ASP.NET
Membership. You can find more information about it here:

#Walkthrough: Creating a Web Site with Membership and User Login (Visual
Studio)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/879kf95c.aspx

You will see that it requires very little code to have a fully functional
user registration and login system.

The user information storage can be implemented using ASP.NET Profile. You
can find more information about it here:

#Walkthrough: Maintaining Web Site User Information with Profile Properties

You can use user-defined types as Profile properties, see following MSDN
magazine article for a sample:

Hope this helps. Please feel free to post here if anything is unclear.
