    <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Inserting the <code>UserID</code> into the <code>Tickets</code> table when adding a record first requires that you have access to the <code>UserID</code> value. You then need to pass this value in your <code>INSERT</code> statement. </p> <p>Looks like we first need to retrieve the UserId. Since you are using <code>FormsAuthentication</code> we can retrieve the UserName from the <code>User.Identity.Name</code> object and use that as the value in our first query to retrieve the UserId.</p> <pre><code> Dim cmdS As String = "Select [UserID] from Users Where Deleted='N' AND UserName=@UserName" Dim cmdGetUserId As New SqlCommand(cmdS, sConnection) Dim cmd As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@UserName", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar) cmdGetUserId.Parameters.Add("@UserName", SqlDbType.VarChar) cmdGetUserId.Parameters.Item("@UserName").Value = User.Identity.Name Dim obj As Object = cmdGetUserId.ExecuteScalar Dim myUserId As Integer = Integer.Parse(obj) </code></pre> <p>Now that we have the UserId value for our current user we can modify our <code>INSERT</code> statement and parameters.</p> <pre><code> cmdInsertTicket.Connection = conticket cmdInsertTicket.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Ticket " _ &amp; "(UserID, DateCreated, FullName, Email, TicketType, Subject, Message, Deleted)" _ &amp; "Values(@UserID, @DateCreated, @FullName, @Email, @TicketType, @Subject, @Message, @Deleted)" Dim appUserId As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@UserID", Data.SqlDbType.Int) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Add(appUserId) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Item("@UserID").Value = myUserId Dim appDateCreated As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@DateCreated", Data.SqlDbType.DateTime) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Add(appDateCreated) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Item("@DateCreated").Value = Now() ... Dim appDeleted As New Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@Deleted", Data.SqlDbType.Char) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Add(appDeleted) cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Item("@Deleted").Value = "N" </code></pre> <p>You can access authentication information through the <code>User.Identity</code> object once the user has been authenticated. Might also want to think about implementing a custom <code>IIdentity</code> class to store the UserID if you will need access to it often. Here's a good MSDN article about Custom Authentication: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172766(v=vs.80).aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172766(v=vs.80).aspx</a></p> <p>UPDATE:</p> <p>In regards to the comment below, you are retrieving the <strong>UserID</strong> because the <code>SqlCommand</code> is being executed with the <code>ExecuteScalar</code> method which returns the value of the first column of the first row. I would recommend taking a closer look at the <code>SqlCommand</code> object: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlcommand.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlcommand.aspx</a> and this ADO.NET primer on MSDN: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e80y5yhx(v=vs.80).aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e80y5yhx(v=vs.80).aspx</a></p>

    1. COCan I do this: `cmdInsertTicket.Parameters.Item("@UserIDNum").Value = User.Identity.Name` and then query the Users table for the record? Also, thanks for the MSDN article!

    2. COCould you include all of the code for this query? I'm assuming `@UserIDNum` is an integer and `User.Identity.Name` is going to be a string, but I'd like to see how you are querying the database so I can give you a better answer.

    3. COYou're right, `@UserIDNum` is an integer. I haven't figured out the query yet but I'm going to work on it.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
