How to get datasource name dynamically from .txt / .xml file
using C#.net 2.0 with Mysql 5.0

I am using C#.Net 2.0 With MySql 5.0. I created a project and it works fine in
my machine. But problem occurs when i try to run the project other than my
machine. I wrote datasource=mysystem name in connection string. Is it possible
to get datasource name dynamically from a text file (*.txt) or from .xml file
for MySql.

Add an App.Config file to your project and you can drop a connection string in
there like so:

  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="PICK A NAME" connectionString="YOUR CONNECTION
STRING"/>
  </connectionStrings>

You can then use ConfigurationManager to read it.

Hope this helps,
