Adding Control to CreateUserWizard Control


CreateUserWizard(CUW) control comes with some default controls for entering UserName,Password, ConfirmPassword, Email, etc. Sometimes you might want to add additional controls eg. for storing Firstname,LastName,CompanyName, etc.

Here is how you can add these additional controls. IDE used is Visual Studio 2005.

  1. Drag and drop a CUW in the designer Panel.
  2. Selet the Control.
  3. Select the small arrow on top right corner of the contol
  4. Select the 'Customize Create User Step'

Now Switch to the Source view. You will find the markup for the CreateUserWizard as below:

<asp:CreateUserWizard ID="CreateUserWizard1" runat="server">

<WizardSteps>

<asp:CreateUserWizardStep ID="CreateUserWizardStep1" runat="server">

<ContentTemplate>

<table border="0">

<tr>

<td align="center" colspan="2">

tr>

table>

ContentTemplate>

asp:CreateUserWizardStep>

<asp:CompleteWizardStep ID="CompleteWizardStep1" runat="server">

asp:CompleteWizardStep>

asp:CreateUserWizard>

Add a Label and Texbox

Now you can add new controls or modify the existing controls as per your requirement. For our case we will add a Label and a TextBox contols to allow users to enter their Company name right before they enter their UserName.

<tr>

<td align="right">

<asp:Label ID="CompanyNameLabel" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="CompanyName">Company Name:asp:Label>td>

<td>

<asp:TextBox ID="CompanyName" runat="server">asp:TextBox>

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="CompanyNameValidator" runat="server" ControlToValidate="CompanyName"

ErrorMessage="Company Name is required." ToolTip="Company Name is required." ValidationGroup="CreateUserWizard1">*asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

td>

tr>

This is how our control will look.
