Sumit Kesarwani · Answer

The web.config file sets the configuration for a Web project. The appSettings block in configuration file sets the user-defined values for the whole application.

For example, in the following code snippet, the specified ConnectionString section is used throughout the project for database connection:

<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="ConnectionString"
value="server=indiabixserver; pwd=dbpassword; database=indiabix"
/>
</appSettings>
<configuration>
