DataSet Wizard & machine.config

Post by jammerjam » Thu 20 Mar 2008 13:04

I have a connection string stored in my machine.config that I want to use - how do I run through the wizard and utilize that variable?

The DataSet wizard of MyDirect .NET can reach a connection if it is available in the following places:
- Server Explorer;
- App.config;
- MyDeveloper Tools Database Explorer;
- or simply via an instance of MySqlConnection component.

At what section of machine.config do you store the connection string?

We will implement this feature in future builds (probably not in the next one).
As for now, you need to store the connection string in a place listed above in order to reach it from the DataSet wizard.
