Remarks

The membership provider specified in the MembershipProvider property will determine whether the question and answer text boxes are displayed at run time.

If an answer is required by the membership provider specified in the MembershipProvider property, then the answer text box will appear on the CreateUserWizard control. Each text box displayed on the CreateUserWizard control has a RequiredFieldValidator object associated with it.

This property cannot be set by themes or style sheet themes. For more information, see ThemeableAttribute and ASP.NET Themes and Skins.

The value of this property, when set, can be saved automatically to a resource file by using a designer tool. For more information, see LocalizableAttribute and Globalization and Localization.
