Yeah, that example has:

<configuration>


<!-- Please note this is NOT the correct "2.0" way of setting up connection
strings -->

<appSettings>

<add key="MyAppConnectionString" value="Data Source=.; Initial
Catalog=Northwind; User Id=northwinduser; Password=northwindpassword;
Timeout=20" />

</appSettings>


</configuration>



Which is a "typical" 1.1 type setup.

You could download this one:

Which has the 2.0 (and beyond) <connectionStrings></connectionStrings> in
it.
