Manually changing username in Asp.Net Membership

Question

I am able to change a username by directly accessing the asp.net membership user tables. However, the old username is preserved in a new row and assigned a new UserID autom

Answer 1

How did you change the username? I just did it by using an update sql statement and updated the username without creating new rows or preserving the old username.

UPDATE [MyDatabase].[dbo].[aspnet_Users] 
SET [UserName] = 'mynewusername',
    [LoweredUserName] = LOWER('mynewusername')
WHERE [UserName] = 'myusername'
