Hi

Is it possible to maintain a datasource connection string in a config file (like the web.config of web site) for all reports.

I'm creating a web application, but in a seperate project I'm creating the reports.
Once published, it will be known where the database reside, so changing the connection string only at one place so that all the reports then use that connection string.?

Hello Guss,

Please excuse us for the delayed reply.

Really the web.config file is very useful place to store application's specific information (settings) like connection strings fro example. In this thread the same case is discussed and a sample code is provided. Please follow the  pattern and let us know if further help is needed.

Sincerely yours,
Ivan
