Hey everyone - is there a file in a windows application that is analogous to
the web.config in ASP.NET applications?

Basically, I want to store a bunch of strings (that are NOT confidential) in
a common configuration file and that I can easily access like the web.config
file for ASP.NET applications.

In summary I would like a place to store configuration information for a
windows application and the methods I use to access that information.

Thanks,
Novice
