Hola Hilmar,

I use a configuration file for this purpose, which is just an xml file with all the settings my app needs and their values. Easy enough to be edited with any text editor, yet does the trick.

Look for System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings in help for more information.

Hope this helps!

Alex
