Been doing web pages for years using html code and css. Recently decided to try asp.net and love it, probably because I'm an old C, C++ programmer. Every time I do a project the need for a database seems to come up which I've had no luck in setting up. So far I've worked around the need for a database by using text tiles in the App_Data folder. But this time I need a bunch of different text files or one text file and a lot of code finding the right entry. In short I believe a database would really fit here.
Can someone give me a "step by step" on accessing a database. I have an ip address my web host says I'll need. I believe the key is writing the connection string. I've been to connectionstrings.com and was unable to interpret anything there into what I need.

I have a entity data model generated from a database schema. Now that database is no more physically available, I want to generate a new database with the same schema model. I'm able to generate the tables from the script that the Entity Frame work generates for me.
I have two problems. I'm not able to generate the stored procedures from EDM. Second, I'm not able to change the connection string to the new database. Do I have to re-generate the edm from the new database that I'm trying to create?

how can I change ASP.NET Configuration tool-s connection string name? (Which connection string will ASP.NET Configuration tool will use)
I'm learning ASP.NET and everywhere and in book that I'm reading now theres connection string named: LocalSqlServer.
I want to use my local sql server database instead of sql express to store Roles, Membership and other data.
I have used aspnet_regsql.exe to create needed data structures in my database. after that I changed my web.config to look like:

I have a page in asp.net (web forms) that up until now only had one database for data.
So all the controls that require something from the database use a datasource and the same connection string.
<asp:SqlDataSource id="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DefaultConnectionString %>"
ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"
SelectCommand="SELECT ... ">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
Up until now I only needed one connection string since I had only one database but this has changed since I want some users to connect to database A and others to database B What would be the correct way to go about it?

I have a solution which uses Linq to SQL Data Classes to acced the db. I have a project for my domain objects in my solution, which is a class library and has the dbml file. When I set up the dmbl using the wizard, Visual Studio created anapp.config file on that project with the connection string. It also creatting asettings file with the same info. I've noticed that if I change the connection string in the settings file, the app.config gets updated, which is the expected behaviour.
However, I'm having a problem when I deploy my web site to the production server. I already set the app.config file's Build Action to "Content", and also set Copy to ouput directory to "Always". Nevertheless, when I install the web site and change the connection string in the app.config file, it still takes the old connection string, so obviously I get an error. I've found that it only works if I change it with in Visual Studio and then compile, but of course that's not an optimal solution, because any change in the production db server would mean I have to change my project's assembly, thus generating a new version.
What do I have to configure so that the assembly takes the connection string form my app.config file directly after I deploy?

I have serveral databases with same tables. I created a crystal report to show the report for respective logins from the database. I have a problem in it. In crystal report when i changing the database it should not change the respective table. It loads only the table what we give in the connection string first time.

I am trying to change the connection string for the registration form in VS 2010.
This is because it links to the local database in the App_Data which I need it to link to another database. I have changed the connection string in the webconig file and this works file for other forms I have created but does not allow me to create new users.
I have used the ASP.net 4.0 template when creating this website.

I will explain the my current yet simple architecture of my application(s). At the moment I have my main web application as a separate project. I then reference the CoreBLLDAL (Business Logic and Data Access) Project so that several projects can have access to the BLL/DAL Project.
Within the CoreBLLDLL Project I use TableAdapters for my DAL.
I have just upgraded to VS2010 and I would like to make use of the Config Transforms, allowing me to have a separate web.config for test and production - however, TableAdapter get the connection string from the Settings.settings file.
How can I change the TableAdapters to get the connection string from the app/web.config file? I read that you can change this within the designer file for the TableAdapters by using ConfigurationManager, however, I tried this but I do not have access to the ConfigurationManager namespace. I presume this is because the project is a class library and not a web application - I am not too sure.

I have a db connection string 'ApplicationServices' defined in the connectionString section of web.config and 3 Entity Framework connection strings which have the provider connection string attribute with the same connection string as the one in 'ApplicationServices'. Is there a way to reference connectionString in 'ApplicationServices' for the provider connection string attribute of the EF connection string in the web.config, rather than providing the connection string all over again?

am writing a series of WSS/MOSS webparts amongst which one will need to detect the current SQL Server database connection, prompt the user to setup a new connectionstring, and fire appropriate stored procedures to create a new database if needed. The user needs to be presented a textbox or label control with the current database connection. I've never had to detect current database connection, what methods do I call for this? If the desirable connection is not present, the web application needs to prompt the user to make a new database. The user really won't make the database, they simply need to click the command button which will fire the stored procedure to create the database.

I am preparing for an Access2007 db conversion at the beginning of the year and would like to know what the best process would be for connecting to the sqlserver2005 database. I have read about adding the connection string to the web.config file. I have also read about using ADO.NET and put the connection information into a class and not the web.config file.
I would like to hear from others as to what you have used, are using, or plan on using for a webapp (vs2010), and why so I can get an understanding.

I have an ASP.Net website running on IIS7. The Application Pool is set to ASPv4 Classic.
Authentication Mode is set to ASP.Net Authentication & Windows Authentication
My question is, when I want to connect to SQL using a "trusted connection" in the Connection String, what user will actually be passed into SQL?
I thought it would pass my logon details, but it is coming back with an NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON error, which seems to point towards it not passing in my logon.
