just a bit down the page there is this paragraph
The ASP.NET Provider Toolkit Site provides tons of content on how to create and build your own providers (including Membership and Role Providers). It also has a link to a fully functional Membership and Role Provider that works with Access databases. This article also discusses how to build your own Membership Provider, and can be a useful guide to integrating the membership APIs with your own existing database.
