This is how to read connection string from a configuration file (web.config, app.config). Assume you have the following in your configuration file:
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="MyConnectionString"
connectionString="Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=master;Persist Security Info=True" />
</connectionStrings>
<configuration>
In order to read this string within C# code do this:
1. Add reference to System.Configuration.dll
2.Use this code:
string connString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
