I really like the videos, i appreciate microsoft for giving tons of videos about asp.net 2.0. i watched most of it. the only problem that i have with these videos is there is no video for putting the local database to sql server 2005.
the user accounts, roles and everything is created on the local mdf file but how am i going to deploy it to a sql server 2000 or 2005 ? those videos are missing :)

Thanks for the feedback, volkanuzun.

There are tools for hosters to make it easy to deploy SQL Express databases to a full SQL Server in a hosted environment and the process could differ from one host to another which is why a single video may not be very useful.  You can read about the process used at VWDHosting.net at http://www.vwdhosting.net/text.aspx?tmpl=ug

If you have admin access to the SQL Server you wish to deploy the SQL Express MDF file to, you should be able to use Management Studio to attach the database then manually fix up the logins and connection strings as necessary.
