Step 2: Then you can add code to your member sign up page.

Here is the sample code added to register button:

   Private Sub txtregister_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtregister.Click
        'XML web service Integration Settings, set No.
        'When modify user information, username can not be updated, if you need user update username, you have to add a new user.
        'GroupID. If you have multiple Groups, you have to list Group, and let customer choose one user group to register.
        Dim DRM As New drm_x.HaihaisoftLicenseService

        Dim AdminEmail As String = "your@login_mail.com"  'AdminEmail is your login Email of DRM-X Account.
        Dim WebServiceAuthStr As String = "123" ''WebServiceAuthStr is the Web Service Authenticate String for DRM-X web service. You can set this value in Profile - Website Integration Preferences of your DRM-X Account.

        Dim UserLoginName As String = Me.txtusername.Text   'UserLoginName is the username or unique UserID in your user database.
