>>>Yes, it needs to be the database key that is defined in your app.config file and also in your web.config file.

>A Web config file would be required for the project for a web application. The business object project only needs the app.config. The business object project uses the connection in the app.config for connection during development primarily for the business object generator. When the application is added the application uses the app.config connections for a windows project and a web.config for a web project to connect to the database.

Yes, that was my understanding from the Jump Start, and the app.config is present. I think the message is misleading. I have worked around that a bit between the app.config and the ABusinessObject.DatabaseKey I get a good build now.

I must have a connection string problem somewhere. It fails to connect with NUnit.

Thanks for your assistance.
