ERROR: Name 'ConfigurationManager' is not declared

[Faisal Khatri]

Hello everyone, I am using VB.NET 2005 and creating a code file in which i have declared a method of connecting to the Databse. In order to implement that I am getting my Database connection string value from web.config defined like this. In the code file I am using ConfigurationManager.ConnectionString("MySqlConn").ToString(), but its giving me error "Name 'ConfigurationManager' is not declared". I have already included System.Configuration namespace at the top. but it continously giving me error. Please guys/gals help me..its urgent.. KHATRI

You also have to add a reference to the System.Configuration assembly. In 1.1 this namespace existed in the System assembly, but in 2.0 new classes like ConfigurationManager reside in this new one.
