"system.invalidoperationexception was unhandled" on

I receive 'InvalidOperationException was unhandled'. con.Open(); Is then highlighted.

My app is working fine if i use connection string in the .cs file but i get the exception if i place it in web.config. Tried everything available on google but no luck.

Code

using System.Configuration;
using System.Web.Configuration;

public DataSet GetInvoice()
{
      SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection();
     con.ConnectionString =            WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyConnection"].ConnectionString; 

            DataSet ds = new DataSet();
            SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from invoice", con);
            **con.Open();**
            da.Fill(ds);
            con.Close();
            return ds;
        }

Web.config

<connectionStrings>       
    <add name ="MyConnection" connectionString = "Data Source =.\\SQLEXPRESS; AttachDbFilename = C:\\USERS\\SALIL\\DOCUMENTS\\INVOICING.MDF ; Integrated Security = True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
  </connectionStrings>

There is no need to escape the slashes in the connection string in the web.config file. It should be:

  <connectionStrings>       
    <add name ="MyConnection" 
       connectionString = "Data Source =.\SQLEXPRESS; AttachDbFilename = C:\USERS\SALIL\DOCUMENTS\INVOICING.MDF ; Integrated Security = True" 
       providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
  </connectionStrings>

See Handle backslash in the connection string for more information.
