Thanks for the response Eddie.
However, that's not my issue. During my installation process, I need to
change the connection string to point to the newly installed database.
Then, I need to to execute some business classes that use the application
blocks for data access. It seems that even though I can change the config
file and I haven't yet written any code to use the
DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase(...) method, it still uses the old connection
string instead of the new one that I just wrote out.
I'm really not sure what to do now.
Thanks,
Mike
