In your web.config, add a connection string entry:

<connectionstrings><br />
  <add><br />
    name="LocalSqlServer" <br />
    connectionString="Data Source=amit\sqlexpress;Initial <br />
    Catalog=MyDatabase;User ID=userName;Password=password"<br />
    providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"<br />
  /><br />
</add></connectionstrings>

and then on
.cs Page U can get connection by Using

SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["LocalSqlServer"].ConnectionString);
