I subclassed the mmAppConfiguration class for my specific application. Then added public properties for everything I wanted. I put a property in the App.cs to access it.

public class TipTraxSettings : mmAppConfiguration
{
    public TipTraxSettings() : base(false)
    {
        // Specify the settings to be encrypted, and the encryption key
        this.SetEncryption("WSUserId,WSPassword", "PacificaSys");
			
        // Use a custom Config file
        this.ReadKeysFromConfig("TipTrax.Config");
    }

    #region Public Settings Properties

    /// <summary>
    /// MyTruckCode Property
    /// </summary>
    public string MyTruckCode
    {
        get { return _myTruckCode; }
        set { _myTruckCode = value; }
    }
    private string _myTruckCode = "120";

    /// <summary>
    /// EnableGps Property
    /// </summary>
    public bool EnableGps
    {
        get { return _enableGps; }
        set { _enableGps = value; }
    }
    private bool _enableGps = true;
}

Then in App.cs Add a static public property to get to access them.

/// <summary>
/// ApplicationSettings Property
/// </summary>
public static TipTraxSettings ApplicationSettings
{
    get
    {
				
        if (_applicationSettings == null)
            _applicationSettings = new TipTraxSettings();

        return _applicationSettings;
    }
}
private static TipTraxSettings _applicationSettings;

Now anywhere in the application I can reference it like this:
if (AppDesktop.ApplicationSettings.EnableGps)
{
    // Do something
}
or
string truckCode = AppDesktop.ApplicationSettings.MyTruckCode;

Hope that helps.
Regards;
Tim
