Tim,
>Since with ASP.net there is a App_Data directory designed in, are you planning any way to use data in this directory within the web.config file? It appears one needs to use Server.MapPath() to find it in the connection string, and I don't know how to do this in an xml file.
You can use the "|DataDirectory|" stringn in the web.config file to specify your database is located in the App_Data directory. Here is more information on how to use this.
