How do I Read/Write user settings from a DLL?

I have a managed application that consists of a C# executable, and a C++
/CLI DLL. I've used the Designer in Visual Studio to hook up a few
controls to the user settings file and now I want to read those
properties from my DLL. Unfortunately, I can't find any documentation
that describes how to do this. I tried copying (or porting) the contents
of my auto-generated Settings.Designer.cs file to my C++/CLI DLL
project, but it doesn't work. When I try to access values that I can
successfully read from my EXE, my DLL returns an empty string.

Thanks,
--Jeremy
