Property Value

The SqlMembershipProvider sets the CreationDate, LastLoginDate, LastActivityDate, and LastPasswordChangedDate date to the same date and time when a membership user is created by the CreateUser method.

Example

The following code example displays all membership user names in a ListBox and uses labels to show specific membership information for the selected user name, including the CreationDate property for the membership user.

Visual Basic
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Security" %>
<script runat="server">

Dim users As MembershipUserCollection

Public Sub Page_Load()
  users = Membership.GetAllUsers()

  If Not IsPostBack Then
    ' Bind users to ListBox.
    UsersListBox.DataSource = users
    UsersListBox.DataBind()
  End If


  ' If a user is selected, show the properties for the selected user.

  If Not UsersListBox.SelectedItem Is Nothing Then
    Dim u As MembershipUser = users(UsersListBox.SelectedItem.Value)

    EmailLabel.Text = u.Email
    IsOnlineLabel.Text = u.IsOnline.ToString()
    LastLoginDateLabel.Text = u.LastLoginDate.ToString()
    CreationDateLabel.Text = u.CreationDate.ToString()
    LastActivityDateLabel.Text = u.LastActivityDate.ToString()
  End If
End Sub
