Database Creation

Hello...

I want to develop a web site having two features

1. Online Shopping
2. Forums

Im using SQL Server, ASP.NET and C#. Now the problem is that how do I configure the Databases. Whether I create new database for each or I marge the both things into one database. if i create saperate databases for each of the feature then users have to register for two times, first for forums and second for shopping. I dont want to do this...! I want users to register just for once.

____________
Thanks in adv

Creating of 2 separated DB will be better.

You can use the registration info in one DB table and to use this DB table for authentication. So, registrations will be one time only
