Hi, I have an ASP.NET project where I want to keep the membership (SQL Provider) in a separate database and the Roles/Profiles will be per application.

Question

What is the KEY that relates between the Membership database and the Roles/Profile database? Is it the UserID or UserName?

I opened up the tables in separate expolrer and notice the UserID is different in the Membership database from that in the application Roles database.
