Class for Reading Configuration Files

All,

Is there a class in the .NET framework specifically designed for
reading configuration files, e.g., MyApp.exe.config? I know that I
can read them via XmlReader and the like, but I was wondering if there
were classes with a slightly higher level of abstraction.

Thanks,
John

Hi john,

You can read it, but cannot write them :)

Use System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings
