The current configuration system does not support user-scoped settings

I have a problem in which I'm trying to access a method in a .DLL from
an ASP.Net web page (written in C#). I keep on getting the error "The
current configuration system does not support user-scoped settings".

I've done some research into this problem and I've found out that the
solution has something to do with the ConfigurationManager.AppSettings
for settings, or Profiles for per-user configutation in ASP.Net 2.0.
However, I don't know where to find the ConfigurationManager! I've
looked in Website/ASP.Net configuration and Tools/Options +
Environment and I can't find it!

I can't seem to find a handle on what to do about this! Can somebody
help me!

Thanks so very much!

SteveJust set a reference to the System.Configuration assembly and
ConfigurationManager will magically appear.

OK,
So I now have the Configuration Manager, what do I do?
I see "Project", "Configuration" (Debug), "Platform" (.NET) and
"Build" columns but no AppSettings seems to be available. Help!!!

Oops, I meant "a few minutes ago".

I've warned my fingers not to post on their own any more.

Steve,

ConfigurationManager.AppSettings represents the NameValue collection of the
entries you have in your <appSettingsweb.config (or xx.exe.config)
configuration file. You can access individual elements with:
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["connectionString"]

to get the string value.
Peter
