lt add name  connstr  connectionString  Data Source localhost Initial Catalog DBName User Id username Password password  providerName  System Data SqlClient   gt    The above also works  It ignores the username and password passed in in the connection string  I switched from an environment db to a local one  and it works fine even though my user in the connection string does not exist in this context
