database-connection

I am not able to use

String connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DevBackup"].ConnectionString;

I am getting error 'The name 'ConfigurationManager' does not exist in the current context'
I have used namespaces

using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Data.Sql;

what should be done..?? Am I missing something..??
