Retrieving a user's role and viewing it

[andy2325]

I was wondering how I can go about viewing a user's role using the membership provider. I have tried the following:

dim strRoles() as string
strRoles = Roles.GetRolesForUser("User")
lblRole.text = strRoles

So what happens when you run your code. I suspect you get an error, or some weird text because you are trying to assign an array to a label. You will have to loop through the array of strings and display them. Also, verify what GetRowsForUsers returns.

I get an error saying that it can not convert value of type '1-dimensional array of string' to 'string'

Yes exactly what I said. You have to loop through the values in the array.
