We are trying to create a private store, where a user has to log in and give us an active account number before they gain access to purchase. Is there a way to add another field to the User Account Info along with email and password for an account number? Also, can we set it up so when a user registers, it checks the system to be sure that the account number they entered exists in the system?

Log into your admin then go to Profile fields
This is where you can add your new fields.
I am able to add the custom field to the registration form, but I am looking for a way to check the contents of that field against the database. The idea is the user needs to input an account number that is already in our system before they are able to register. Is there a way to do this within CS Cart? Or would that require custom queries to a database?

This requires customization. You would first need to provide a table of all active account numbers and then write the routine to validate against this table.

I need something similar too, did you get it to work?
