The Membership Provider in ASP.NET is very handy and extensible. It's simple to use the "off the shelf" features like Active Directory, SQL Server, and OpenLDAP. The main advantage is the ability to not reinvent the wheel. If your needs are more nuanced than that you can build your own provider by extending overriding the methods that the ASP.NET controls use. I am building my own Custom Membership Provider for an e-commerce website. Below are some resources for more information on Membership Providers. I asked myself the same questions when I start that project. These resources were useful to me for my decision: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.devx.com/asp/Article/29256" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Writing a Custom Membership Provider</a> - DevX</li> <li><a href="http://www.asp.net/learn/videos/video-189.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">How do I create a Customer Membership Provider</a> - ASP.NET, Microsoft</li> <li><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f1kyba5e.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Implementing a Membership Provider</a> - MSDN</li> <li><a href="http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/120705-1.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Examining ASP.NET 2.0's Membership, Roles, and Profile</a> - 4GuysFromRolla</li> <li><a href="http://davidhayden.com/blog/dave/archive/2007/10/11/CreateCustomMembershipProviderASPNETWebsiteSecurity.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Create Custom Membership Provider for ASP.NET Website Security</a> - David Hayden</li> <li><a href="http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/trobbins/Setting-up-a-Custom-Membership-Provider/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Setting up a Custom Membership Provider</a> - Channel 9</li> </ul> I personally don't think there is a need to use something other than the builtin stuff unless you either want to abuse yourself or your needs are impossible to satisfy by the builtin functionality.

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.
