Hai friend i have read your mesage,
to use connectionstring in web.config..
<configuration>
    <connectionStrings>
        <add connectionString="Server=server name;Database=databasename;uid=user id;pwd=password;" name="ConStr"/>
    </connectionStrings>
</configuration>

To call the connection string to our page
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConStr"].ToString());
I think it may useful to you..
If still you have doubt reply me.

question regarding proper setup pf the web.config file

christly — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 01:17:57 GMT

I am pretty much a newbie and I am not totally familiar with the proper setup of the web.config file for the SBSK. My web host uses SQL 2000, so I found the post on this forum where someone shared the script to create the database on SQL 2000 instead of the built in SQL 2005 Express - and that seeemd to work fine. I am now trying to mody the web.config file to connect to that database properly. Here is what I have so far:

I blanked out the IP Address of the remote SQL server (but I have verified that I can conect to it fine), as well as the user ID, password, and database name.

I am thinking I have something misconfigured - such as the NetworkLibrary value, or maybe it is something else. Any help from the forum is appreciated.
