I need to use a configuration file to set the connection string for the ado
data connector in my project, but I'm having trouble reading the config
file.
My config file contains the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<appSettings> <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=localhost;user
id=root;password=pw;database=aceinventory;pooling= false"/>
</appSettings>
</configuration>
The file is named ACE_Inventory.config where ACE_Inventory is the name of
the project's exe file and is located in the project's bin folder.
I'm using the following line to read the file:
sInventoryConnection =
System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSett ings("ConnectionString")
Unfortunately, this does not read the config file.
I'd sure appreciate any advice.
Thanks, Steve Enzer
