Read the whole thread. It's not only about ini and configuration files. You can have a class that'd keep public static types for the whole application.

> That's the way i use in fox , i store the custom object to a public variable or hang it on the _screen and i can read it from anywhere in my app, but i can't find the way in .net, the thread you pointed is about an ini or configuration file which i use for set connection strings, i would like to use the custom object to retrieve and store info without using a file for example i use a form to select a customer and i want to store his id in an object and then be accessed from any form in my application, as you said in fox i can keep that custom object as public variable or add it as an object to the _screen but i can not find the way in .net.

>>>In Vfox i use _screen to hang properties or objects that can be accessed by forms , i m trying to do the same in .Net using a mdiform in which i create some public properties but i can't find the way for those propeties in MdiForm may be accessed by child forms.

>>Juan,
>>In VFP too normal way is to use a custom object (oMyApp) to store such info. You can do the similar in .Net. Check Thread #1040828 (it's C# but gives the idea).
