Error : ConnectionString property has not been initialized

[raj74]

Hi guys,

I am getting an error "ConnectionString property has not been initialized"
when i try to reterive some web forms.I think web.config file is not read
properly by the web form. if i type the connectstring directly .it is working
fine.can any one help to solve this problem?

my coding is ....

Dim mConn As SqlConnection
mConn = New sqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectingString"))



But if i type like the below code it is working fine.

Dim mConn As SqlConnection
mConn = New SqlConnection("server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=true;database=teledb")


can any one suggest me how to rectify this problem.

thanks in advance
raj
