Title Body

In my application when I try to get the connection string by using this code : System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConStr"].ConnectionString; It throws an exception that "Configuration System Failed To Initialize". Where is the format of app.config wrong ? <?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration> <connectionStrings> <add name="ConStr" connectionString="Integrated Security=false;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=funny;password=veryfunny;Initial Catalog=vegimanager;Data Source=.\sqlexpress;"/> </connectionStrings> <configSections> <sectionGroup name="userSettings" type="System.Configuration.UserSettingsGroup, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"> <section name="Vegi_Manager.Properties.Settings" type="System.Configuration.ClientSettingsSection, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" allowExeDefinition="MachineToLocalUser" requirePermission="false"/> </sectionGroup> </configSections> <userSettings> <Vegi_Manager.Properties.Settings> <setting name="FIRMNAME" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMADDRESS" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMCITY" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMSTATE" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMPHONE" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMMOBILE" serializeAs="String"> <value/> </setting> <setting name="FIRMEMAIL"
