Are you talking about settings for Visual Studio or settings for an
application?  We use XML files for storing application settings (not VS
settings), Gustav.  I don't know why you characterize it as clumsy, and
we don't "attack" any xml files.

Hi all

How do you store application settings?

I've noticed the nice pane with the tab "Settings" for manually doing
this, but it is read-only from code.
Of course you can step down and attack the xml file storing the data,
but I find that a bit clumsy.
