Hello, Darren
Short answer... MM.NET doesn't require any extra config files.
At design time, the ellipse button triggers MM to connect to your back end datasource. This is to provide a list of tables and fields for you to select from when databinding.
To connect in this manner, MM reads your app.config/web.config for connection strings. In your case, those are all supposed to be in your web.config file -- toward the bottom -- in a separate "databases" section. All MM.NET generated projects include an app.config/web.config file with this section.
If yours doesn't have one, I would suggest looking for a config file from another project and copying the section over to this project. Also, there is a config file MM uses as the template when creating projects, so you could open that one to find the databases section. Don't remember off the top of my head where it's located, but if you search you will find!
Hope that helps,
