ASPNETDB.MDF problem

Hi

I'm fairly new to ASP.Net and SQL Server Express etc. I hope someone can help.
the problem below is causing a problem when I try attaching the ASPNETDB.MDF using the discountasp.net attach tool.

I'm trying to setup the website admin side of things. I've used the .Net built in Login control etc, and everything works fine.
The trouble comes when I try separating the ASPNETDB.MDF file from it's default place (App_Data folder).

I move ASPNETDB.MDF to another folder
I've modified the web.config file accordingly (under the <membership> tag)
I open the ASP.Net Configuration form inside Studio
It recognises the fact that I'm using the moved database

but...
As soon as I click on the 'Security' link, a new ASPNETDB.MDF is then created in the App_Data folder.
The tool then referes to this database and so does my application

I've tried numerous things, but seem to keep going round in circles /emoticons/turn.gif

Can anyone help. I'm probably doing something stupid.....

Cheers,

Jugs

the link he provided was about two years ago, when we were using an old KB article. You should be looking at the following KB article:
