Thanks for response Travis.
It turns out my problem is that my config file was called App.Config. When in
fact it should be called <myApp.exe.config>
Interesting fact .............

If I remember that is correct for VB; C# it would be
ConfigurationSettings.AppSetting["someName"];
do you have everything set up like this? (Between the appSettings tags)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration
<appSettings>
<add key="someName" value="someValue" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>

Subject: [AspNetAnyQuestionIsOk] Reading App.Config from Windows Service
Hello Everyone,
I have developed a Windows Service, however, I am unable to read from
the app.config file. I do so by typing in
ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("DBConnStr")
This statement works fine if I run it from a winforms application. On
a note, I've verified the spelling and file is in the application's
folder.
Any ideas anyone ?
TIA.
Nick
