set the connectionString in web.config

[biap]

I'm using ASP.NET with Visual Studio 2005 and I want to give the connection string in a textbox and then, from there take the value and set the connectionString in web.config? Is it possible to do that and how?

Hi..

Config class allows to read (and of course, write) to that section, as follows:
Config config = new Config();
config.GroupName = null; // don't use the "profile" group
...
string value = config.GetValue("appSettings", "App Entry", null);
config.SetValue("appSettings", "Update Date", DateTime.Today);

Hope this will help u
