Retrieve Full Connection String
I know that you can get to the individual connection properties from the SQLLogin screen to update a web.config file. However, instead of populating the connection using the variables IS_SQLSERVER..., is there a property I can use to just get the full SQLServer connection string?
For example, I created a connection called DefaultConnection, is there a property I can use to just get the entire connection string for this connection?
Thanks,
Drew

Unfortunately, the built-in SQL feature does not expose the full connection string. You need to build it yourself by reading the individual connection properties.
