Hi, Thanks Jiri. That was fast!! :)
Well System.Data.SQLClient works both ways. Here it is a sample using SQLClient: <add name="pubsConnectionString1" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\pubs.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> This is directly from Microsoft Corporate Web Site Template, downloaded from MSDN. <add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|sampledb.mdf" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> This one is from another sample project and also works fine.

The connection string is untouched (to be able to copy it in (internal) code etc. without problems), only during asking for database value is expanded. You can grab it from http://netprovider.cincura.net, feel free to comment any problems. BTW is there any concensus about the syntax - should it be "|DataDirectory|\something" or "|DataDirectory|something"? On MSDN it's with slash, google found also some without. For this time it's implemented as the first example, but can be easily changed to checked whether the |DataDirectory| is followed by slash or backslash (or just simply Path.DirectorySeparatorChar).
