ASP.NET Role Management and Modify Role's Name

Hi,

I want to change name of a role in ASP.NET Role Management .

For example i have a role named "administrators" and now i want to change its name as "administrators_2".

How can i do this ? In c# please..

Thank you.

Hi gurbuzmete,

Don't think you should delete the 'BuiltInRole' Administrators, that could be a bit dodgy, but you can create as many roles as you like on the fly by executing the roles provider stored procedures.

-- exec aspnet_Roles_CreateRole '/', 'administrators_2'
-- exec aspnet_Roles_GetAllRoles '/'
-- exec aspnet_Roles_DeleteRole '/', 'administrators_2', 0

Hi guys,
Re: i do not want delete created role ; once i have created a role, then i just want to rename it.

The solution I posted will do what gurbuzmete requested, the SQL script sample provided will rename the Role if implemented. Easy enough to wire it up to a button click and execute it.

Respectfully yours,

Alan
