I have added a members login page to my site following a
tutorial using EW & visual web developer. The whole thing works great when i test it on the local host. But now the problem what files & database elements do I upload to my hosting companies server to get to work on the web?

Papajo:
Thanks for the fast reply. I have Jim's book book and the accompnaying cd. I did not realize it treated in a practical way member login interface. If I figure out how to upload your database to your server, I will share with you. But to take a shot at it:
Create a folder/folders in your host server for your database files. If you have a good host, the techies may tell you how to accomplish the integration. Good luck, Papajo.

To get the membership and login working on the live site can be tricky because your local site uses SQL Server Express and most web hosting companies only use SQL Server (not express, but the full version). The full version of SQL server is probably what you want since it’s designed for a production environment but it just means it has to be configured to use the membership stuff and some changes are needed to the web.config file in your application. Each host is different so the procedures will vary to some degree. First of all, you need to find out if your hosting plan offers a SQL Server database (either SQL Server 2000 or 2005; both will work). Without a SQL Server database, you won’t be able to implement the membership/login system (unless you just need a real simple setup where you hardwire one username and password).
Once you have a blank SQL Server database, it needs to be configured to handle the membership. Below is a link to an excellent blog post on how to do this:

There are a lot more details involved but hopefully this points you in the right direction.
Hope this helps
