Sorry Kasi

I have given as much information as I can on this one.
It does work on a postback for me and my colleagues so I am at a loss as to what else is happening with your code.
I can only suggest you try Debugging and Trace to see the errors.

I guess you are trying to access the Extension property for the source file Name of the FileInfo Object before loading the file. the below given code works fine in my system without giving the extension of the new name. When you give the original file name, you need to specify the extension at the input stage. If the file-type is fixed then you hard-code it or pass the extension as a parameter.

FileInfo TheFile = 
new FileInfo(Server.MapPath(".") + "\\" + txtOldFile.Text); 
    if (TheFile.Exists) { 
        File.Copy(MapPath(".") + "\\" + txtOldFile.Text, 
MapPath(".") + "\\" + txtNewFile.Text + TheFile.Extension); 
    } 
    else { 
        throw new FileNotFoundException(); 
    }

Do you mean you want to programmatically add/modify the connection string stored in the web.config file?

Create a XMLDocument Object and Load the XMLFile (web.config) into it, then Navigate through the Nodes and find the attribute of the corressponding Connection string Node in the config file and modify the inner XML of the attribute.

If you must be able to change connection string programatically, then i would recommend storing them in a separate config file and writing your own code to access them.

Perhaps you should ask about what you are trying to accomplish, rather than how to implement it the way that you think that it should be implemented...

  Dim mydoc As System.Xml.XmlDocument = New System.Xml.XmlDocument<br />
        mydoc.Load(Application.StartupPath & "\..\..\app.config")<br />
        Dim node As System.Xml.XmlNode = mydoc.SelectSingleNode("configuration/connectionStrings/add")<br />
        Dim attribute As System.Xml.XmlAttributeCollection = node.Attributes<br />
        attribute(1).Value = ConnectionString<br />

First of all that is not a issue. That is one of the property of the .NET Framework that if you make any changes to the Configuration file, your webapplication will automatically restart since all the application level setting resides in the web.config file. By the way why you are programmatically modifying the web.config file. You can have multiple Connection strings in the Web.config file and access it in your code whichever you want.

This is still just a question about how you implement the specific solution that you have chosen for your problem. Noone knows what is it that you are trying to accomplish really.
