Dear Friend,

You can Add the files as a link to the file to one of your projects.

Use Add an Existing Item to the project you want to add the file to - the Open button has a small down arrow, if you click that you can select Add as Link.

This will add the file as a link from the original location, meaning you only have one physical file.

I just read connectionstring from web project itself.
With that reference, I use configsingleton pattern to store the connectionstring as class file and I used all over the application.

Thanks
