How to use LoginView control with Membership API Roles

Question

I want to use the roles based authorization in my web site. I have created one role named 'Admin' in the database using default asp.net configuration (in website menu in visual studio). I am using default membership API database. (Created using aspnet_regsql.exe tool).

So I want to use the same roles from the database for LoginView control.

Following is the LoginView Control which I have created.

<asp:LoginView ID="LoginView1" runat="server">
        <LoggedInTemplate>
        <h2>This is the logged in template</h2>
        </LoggedInTemplate>
        <AnonymousTemplate>
        <h2>You are not authenticated</h2>
        </AnonymousTemplate>
        <RoleGroups>
            <asp:RoleGroup Roles="Admin">
                <ContentTemplate>
                    <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="lnkBtnCreateUser" 
                        onclick="lnkBtnCreateUser_Click">
                    </asp:LinkButton>
                </ContentTemplate>
            </asp:RoleGroup>
        </RoleGroups>
        </asp:LoginView>

But this control do not display anything for any type of the above mentioned users. Can anybody explain me the exact lacking thing to be implemented in my above code?
