As titled, does it? I am pretty sure I saw it in Visual Studio 2010. (I don’t have Visual Studio 2010 in the office…)
I want to have debug mode use debug server connection string etc.
If not, any workaround?

Visual Studio 2010 has
web.configtransforms, which useweb.debug.configandweb.release.configfiles to apply transformations to the originalweb.config. It actually uses whatever the current build configuration name is; Debug and Release are the defaults, of course.One important note is that this is a Visual Studio feature, not an IIS feature. IIS won’t pay any attention to a web.[anything].config file; only the real one.
Also, the transforms are not used while running the web application within Visual Studio: Transforms are applied during building a deployment package, and the output web.config has the proper transforms applied.
