Problem with .config and VS Net 2003

I'm would assume this question been asked, but a search of the newsgroup
didn't produce a hit.

I've upgraded to VS 2003 and when I execute the program from within the IDE,
the .config file in the bin directory is being deleted (which means that my
program is not finding the configuration file). This behavior didn't occur
with 2002. Does anyone know of a solution?

TIA,

Richard Rosenheim

You need to move the .config to the project folder and name it app.config
(literally "app.config"). When you run the project it will rename the file
and put it in the bin /debug or bin/release folder.
