Here is the correct way to write connectionstring in C#

C#

<connectionstrings>
<add name="dbconnection" connectionstring="Data Source=SureshDasari;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB" providername="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionstrings>

Make sure the account your code is running under has access to the database. Google for configuring windows security with sql server.
