Hi EveryBody:

How can I connect to another database instaed of the default database
aspnetdb in the local SQL Server in the App_Data folder that exist in my web
site application ?

My database that I want to connect is in my local Machine and its name=Husam.

Any Help or redirection will be completely appreciated

regard's

Husam
 
It's easy. Assuming the credentials have access rights to the other
database, simply add the name of the database to the Table name.

SELECT Author FROM dbo.Authors
becomes

SELECT Author FROM Pubs.dbo.Authors
