web.config file

hi
i have a web.config file that specifies the connection string for my
database. the database server on the ISP is using a different port than
1433. how do i specify in the connection string to use a specific port
number?
i tried the <ip address>:<port number> and that didn't work.
any ideas?
thanks

Try using a comma vs. a colon to specify the port number. Check out this
