    Default Can I have my customized database along with ADNSF?

    Hello all,
    According to my business needs, I don't like to modify the existing ADNSF database, instead, I wish to create an additional customized database (for example, MyDatabase) in SQL Server.

    My question is, is there any approach that I can use this customized MyDatabase just like using the ADNSF DB in XmlPackage?

    Thanks!

    Sure...but you'll probably need to do a couple things. First, you'll need to add a new connection string to the web.config file (make sure the name doesn't conflict with ours). Next, you'll need to create a custom extensions class (http://forums.aspdotnetstorefront.co...ad.php?t=21114). In your custom extension class you'll need to use the .NET configuration manager to get the connection string from the web.config file, and then from that you can create a new SqlConnection which can be used to query your custom database.
