configuration files

[wallisd]

What is the best way to handle configuration for a VB app? I have a reporting application that reports on different database fields for different customers. I would like to create a configuration screen where I can toggle which fields are reported for which customer. What I don't know is where the best place to store this information would be. I imagine that it would either be in a regkey or in an .ini file, but I don't yet have experience with either of those.

Any advice is appreciated!

Well, I guess the correct way to do it would be using the registry as .ini files are no longer 'flavour of the month' in Redmond.

Use the SaveSetting command to save values into the registry and the GetSetting to retrieve them.
