May try this for your code:

But this is spoon feed have you tried Google. You need to iterate through the nodes in web.config.

C#

set xmlDoc=server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
set xmlappSettings=server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
set xmladd=server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xmlDoc.async="false"
xmlDoc.load(server.MapPath ("web.config"))
set xmlappSettings = xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName("appSettings").Item(0) 
set xmladd = xmlappSettings.GetElementsByTagName("add")
for each x in xmladd 
'Check for the Atrribute Value
if  x.getAttribute("key") ="ConnectionString1" then
Response.write(x.getAttribute("value"))
end if
next
