asked on ASP.NET 4 Visual Studio 2010. Membership Website Question
I have a asp.net 4 membership web with roles. When a user goes to change his password, I want to display that particular users Password Questiion. I added a dataset form view to the membership database and am able to achieve this by a sql query when I specify the users actual name in the query. I want to change my code to query the databased based on the user that is logged in.
Basically I want to change the part in my code that says
WHERE (aspnet_Users.UserName = 'RICK')
to something like
Where aspnet_users.username = (the currently logged in user)
I am not sure what to replace "the logged in user" with to make it equal the currently logged in user
any help would be appreciated.

SELECT aspnet_Membership.PasswordQuestion, aspnet_Membership.PasswordAnswer FROM aspnet_Membership INNER JOIN aspnet_Users ON aspnet_Membership.UserId = aspnet_Users.UserId WHERE (aspnet_Users.UserName = 'RICK')

Thank you for your response. But how would I add that to my sql query?
Are you using inline SQL or calling a stored procedure? If it is inline you would do something like (assuming C#):
string username = Membership.GetUser().UserName;
string sql = string.Format("SELECT aspnet_Membership.PasswordQuestion, aspnet_Membership.PasswordAnswer FROM aspnet_Membership INNER JOIN aspnet_Users ON aspnet_Membership.UserId = aspnet_Users.UserId WHERE (aspnet_Users.UserName = '{0}')
", username);
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

I am using inline sql and with VB
In that case:
Dim username As String = Membership.GetUser().UserName
Dim sql As String = String.Format("SELECT aspnet_Membership.PasswordQuestion, aspnet_Membership.PasswordAnswer FROM aspnet_Membership INNER JOIN aspnet_Users ON aspnet_Membership.UserId = aspnet_Users.UserId WHERE (aspnet_Users.UserName = '{0}')
", username)

Ok, I will give it a try. Do I just paste the code into in the "define custum sql or stored procedure"?

Depends how you are trying to get at the data.

I added a list view, then made a connection string to the membership database. Then I am at the part where I am creating the custom sql query to return the question. Thank you so much

I am not sure if I add the sql statement in the vb or sql part

OK. When I put the first code in, it takes me to another screen that says it recognizes I have a parameter "username" It is asking me for a parameter source, a query string fiels and a default value
Ah, it's a little smarter than I gave it credit for :) Leave the source set to "None" and the default value empty, unless you want to give it a default.
