The settings manager is extensible:
1. Create a subclass of mmAppSettingsManager
2. In your subclass, override the methods that read and write app settings (see the mmAppSettingsManager class topic in the Dev Guide)
3. In your application's factory, override the CreateAppSettingsManager() method and instantiate your custom app settings manager. For details, see the MM .NET Dev Guide topic "The Factory Object"
