Applications generated by Iron Speed Designer use the Web.config file for their various configuration parameters, including database and email server connection strings.  The Web.config file is a standard .NET application file that contains a variety of settings that govern how the application behaves.  In general, the Microsoft IIS web server and other web servers read the Web.config file.

Iron speed Designer automatically generates the Web.config file for your application.  However, you may modify the settings as needed.  If you elect to modify the Web.config file, please bear in mind:

• The XML syntax of the Web.config file must be strictly obeyed.  If your application is unable to load the file for any reason, the settings will not take effect.

• Upon modifying the Web.config file, Microsoft IIS will automatically restart your application to use the new settings.
