Date: Wednesday, September 15, 2004

Topic: Storing User Settings in Windows Forms Applications
Rob Windsor, G6 Consulting

Most applications need to store user specific configuration settings, things like chosen colours and fonts or the positioon and size of forms. The application configuration file (App.config) is fine for storing global settings but it does not help us with user specific data. This session will discuss how to manage and store these settings in the registry, in isolated storage or in the file system.
