Sorry in advance for the X-Treme Newbie question. I've got some xml files (actually they're config files for ASP.NET apps in xml format). Certain aspects of the xml is dependant on what server it's being deployed to. For example, I may have:

<add key=&quot;Local Directory&quot; value=&quot;C:\AppsDir\&quot; />

but when this goes to the next level, it must be:

<add key=&quot;Local Directory&quot; value=&quot;C:\Program Files\AppsDir&quot; />

I need to do this with paths, databases, and such. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric
 
OK, I've come up with what I think I'm after, External Entities, but was told it doesn't work with .config files in ASP.NET apps. Is this correct? Thanks - Eric
