Same ConnectionStrin g in designTime & runtime from App.Config. How?

Hi,

I'd like to have my ConnectionStrin g retrieved from the same place in
RunTime or in DesignTime (in VS2005). Is It possible? How?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

A.Neves,

If you right click on your project, you can add an application
configuration file to your executable file (if you are going to use a config
file, then this is where you need to put it). In there, you can add the
connection string (there are new sections specifically for that), and then
retrieve it through code.

Hope this helps.

Hello, I have a question, can someone help me please? What are the differences between a runtime and a designtime component? Is runtime component only good for running with the .exe and not during development environment using Visual Basic 6 (For example, an error pops out saying License is not found - I am using 3rd party components.)?

Hi, I would appreciate if someone could explain this behaviour, and maybe offer a better solution. I have been working with the GridView control. And SqlDataSource. It works great if I do: <asp:SqlDataSource ConnectionString="yada yada yada" etc etc />. I can hook up a GridView to the sqldatasource and view/edit/add records.

Hi, We have an app that is made of many exes (WinForms and Win32 app). All those exes share and read their DB connection string from the registry. This guarantees that all the exes use the same DB. With .Net the connection string is in the app.config file as soon as you use the design time functionality to bind data to grids as an example. So when you have 20 exes you have 20 app.config and the
