Adding New User (external to VB)
 

I just want to verify my findings. I am successfully adding a new user to the user table (field values are good, incl'g password/salt), and I am also retrieving the userid of the newly added user and using that to create new rows in the usertextfield and userfield tables. From reading the PHP, I think this is all that is needed to add a user without violating referential integrity.

Am I right?

It user, usertextfield and userfield are properly filled - yes.

Though you might also wand to update datastore userstats, but this is not absolutely necessary.

Thank you very much. I now have my Microsoft Access based customer support system set up so that with one button click I can install a new user into my VB forum. Thus they have the same user name and password as on the Customer Support pages. I got the secret to generating hashed passwords (MD5 and salt) from this forum too. Wonderful Resource!
