#SqlServerConnectionString

The SqlServerconnectionString is what Izenda AdHoc uses to initialize an MSSQL connection. This will do all the heavy lifting for including tables, functions, and stored procedures. It will also build queries utilizing the Izenda MSSQLDriver.

Below is a sample global.asax using the SqlServerConnectionString setting. The code block will appear within <script runat="server"> </script> tags within global.asax.

##Global.asax (C♯)


//main class: inherits DatabaseAdHocConfig or FileSystemAdHocConfig
public class CustomAdHocConfig : Izenda.AdHoc.DatabaseAdHocConfig
{
  // Configure settings
  // Add custom settings after setting the license key and connection string by overriding the ConfigureSettings() method
  public static void InitializeReporting() {
    //Check to see if we've already initialized.
    if (HttpContext.Current.Session == null || HttpContext.Current.Session["ReportingInitialized"] != null)
      return;
    AdHocSettings.LicenseKey = "INSERT_LICENSE_KEY_HERE";
    //Creates a connection to Microsoft SQL Server
    AdHocSettings.SqlServerConnectionString = "INSERT_CONNECTION_STRING_HERE";
    Izenda.AdHoc.AdHocSettings.AdHocConfig = new CustomAdHocConfig();
    HttpContext.Current.Session["ReportingInitialized"] = true;
  }
}

##Global.asax (VB.NET)
