Rosdi’s Life Journey

If you are wondering how to read Web.Config file programatically in your code, use ConfigurationManager.

Shown below is how I retrieve ConnectionStrings from Web.Config.

[VBNET]
Dim connectionString As String
connectionString = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings(”YOUR_CONNECTION_NAME”).ConnectionString
[/VBNET]

Visual Studio 2005 detects your computer’s default browser during installation and will automatically set its browser to that (IE or Firefox or whatever).

There is no obvious way to change this. It is not even listed in the Option menu.

The only way to change VS2005 default browser is to right click on one of your .aspx file, and then select ‘Browse With’. From there you can choose the browser of your choice and make it the default.

I chose internal web browser as the default as this will greatly speed up by code and debug cycle.
