Multiple Configuration Files

UJ
I've got two apps that need to share a configuration file. How can I do
that? It seems like ConfigurationSettings has built in to it to figure out
the name of the file.

UJ,

You will need to copy the file and then name it appropriately (your
app.exe.config).

However, what you could do is create a custom configuration section for
your apps, and then have the config files for each app have a reference to a
shared file, then read those settings.

Hope this helps.
