I am trying to use a connection string from web.config file for the first time. Here is my code.
Try
Dim cmd As String = _
("SELECT [Name], BirthDate, StartDate From " & _
"Employees WHERE PayGroup='20' AND Status='A'")
Dim conn As String = _
System.Configuration. _
ConfigurationManager. _
AppSettings("myConString")
Dim myConn As New SqlConnection(conn)
Dim myCmd As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd, myConn)
Dim ds As New DataSet
myCmd.Fill(ds)
gvEmp.DataSource = ds
gvEmp.DataBind()
Catch ex As Exception
Response.Write(ex.Message & "<br>")
Finally
End Try
I am getting The ConnectionString property has not been initialized. What am I doing wrong?Show your web.config code.
<connectionStrings>
<add name="myConString" connectionString="Data Source=myServer;Initial Catalog=Employees;User ID=myUser;Password=mypass"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

I know the tags are case-sensitive in web.config. Can't remember about
the keys/vals values. Try changing the case sensitivity of your
.AppSettings call or the key name in the config (make them the same).

I tried dozen of case changes. That doesn't seem to be it.
Any other ideas?

When this says "path to database", what exactly is the value you're specifyi
ng?
It should be "servername" or "servername\instance".

Laura maybe you can give a try like this:-
Don't use:-
ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString")
Try including your connectionstring in ur code like:-
Dim connection As New SqlConnection("Data Source=SERVERNAME;Initial
Catalog=YOURDATABASE;User Id=sa;Password=asdasd;")
Hope that helps

The element 'compilation' has invalid child element 'compilers
Thanks for the response.
I removed it entirely from web.config as it is apparently unnecessary.
Guess I wish the migration wizard could of either 1) removed it for me or 2)
flagged it as a todo with an explanation.
Thx.

The issue with web.config?
When I implement .Net application in design period then web.config file is text file and is editable. If I use VS.Net package tool to package application and distribute to client's machine. The end user can edit the web.config file?
I doubt it can't be edited and also hide in the exe file.
Thanks in advance!what?
I'm not quite following the question, but if you mean what I think you mean,of course the end user can edit it if they want to. you can't stop them. explain yourself.
I set the security level in the web.config and distribute the client machine the installation package. It the end user can edit the web.config in his/her machine, then what I set for security not meaningful - I can't set secrity from web.config.
still not quite making sense.
I think I know what you're on about, and yes, if you want to use a textfile to control your security, then your security will be quite trivialto bypass...
perhaps you should actually explain what you're trying to do with web.configexactly
I doubt it can't be edited and also hide in the exe file.
