Help with accessing a section of web.config for db conn
I have a section of my web.config im trying to use as a database connection string.
Im just trying to do this in the following way but am having trouble accessing the value in the web config where the connection string is.
Im not sure if I use ConfigurationManager.GetSe
The csportal section is in a custom section it does not exist in <appSettings> or <connectionStrings> sections.
