Q: connection problem

Hello,
What is wong with the following code I am getting “ The ConnectionString
property has not been initialized”

Sub BindDataGrid()
Dim myConnection As New
SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("P ersist Security
Info=False;Integrated Security=SSPI;database=myDB;server=MyServer;Connec t
Timeout=30"))

Const strSQL As String = "mySP"
Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand(strSQL, myConnection)

myConnection.Open()
DataGrid1.DataSource =
myCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConne ction)
DataGrid1.DataBind()
End Sub

mySP is a stored procedure wihh is simple “select * from myTable”
Thanks,
Jim.

Could be the following:

Dim myConnection As New
SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("P ersist Security
Info=False;Integrated Security=SSPI;database=myDB;server=MyServer;Connec t
Timeout=30"))

That's an awfully long name for an appSetting name...

appSettings is a name/value Collection. If you have a Connection String
stored there, you should refer to it by name.

Hello JIM.H.,

There's a great article [1] available that demystifies the web.config file.
I recommend you read it to familiarize yourself with the ideas presented.

To solve your problem: In your web.config...

<appSettings>
<add key="connectionString" value="yourConnectionString" />
</appSettings>

In code, do:

ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["connectionString"]

Hi Jim:

Configuration.AppSettings is used to retrieve a setting from the
web.config file. You pass it a key name, and it returns the value.

It looks like you already have a value for the connection string, so
remove Configuration.AppSettings and look for some ASP.NET and ADO.NET
tutorials to learn more.
