Data Connection Dialog （直接调用内置数据源连接对话框）

winform程序，在发布时往往需要更改数据库连接字符串，而数据库采用附加的方式配置数据库连接字符串，可以使用VS2005的配置界面来处理

引用C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/Common7/IDE 里面的Microsoft.Data.ConnectionUI.Dialog.dll。

-->using Microsoft.Data.ConnectionUI;
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DataConnectionDialog dia=new DataConnectionDialog ();

dia.DataSources.Add(DataSource.SqlDataSource);
dia.SelectedDataProvider = DataProvider.SqlDataProvider;
if (DataConnectionDialog.Show(dia, this) == DialogResult.OK )
{
string myConnect = dia.ConnectionString;
MessageBox.Show(myConnect);
}

}
}

为了保存数据库字符串，我们需要更改VS的配置文档（程序的connectString在配置文件内）。.exe文件的配置文件为.exe.config；在同一目录下
