Hello,

I am so close to get this project done. I need to retrieve the password and passwordSalt from my Membership table to compare it to my 'OldPasswords' table.

The problem is the Membership provider does not let me use the GetPassword method because the password is hashed.

And I can not retrieve it in a normal sqlConnection because the UserID is hashed also.

Does anyone know how to hash the UserID so I can put it in my where clause?

Or maybe there is a different way to get to that data?

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Steve
