Dynamin COnnection String

[venerable bede]

I am developing a front-end for an access database.

Because the database will be on a server I need to, after installation, find where the database is and store the connection string in a text file.

When the application is run it reads the text file and stores the text file in a global "CONNSTRING".

I have managed to do this but am not sure where to add the "CONNSTRING" global in my code.

Should all of these:
Me.OleDbDeleteCommand1.Connection = Me.OleDbConnection1
Me.OleDbSelectCommand1.Connection = me.OleDbConnection1
Me.OleDbInsertCommand1.Connection = Me.OleDbConnection1

Read:
Me.OleDbDeleteCommand1.Connection = CONNSTRING
Me.OleDbSelectCommand1.Connection = CONNSTRING
Me.OleDbInsertCommand1.Connection = CONNSTRING

Another problem I have is that when running my program I get build errors because CONNSTRING contains nothing until run time.

I am new to this VB.Net and am finding these database issues difficult to get my head around.

Thanks in Advance

Dbconnection does not seem to be the same thing as connection String. Check this out, has a code snip that looks like it's up your alley, hope it helps:
