Hi all, I have a connection string that I want to store in a file and retrieve via VB.net.
In VB 6 I would have just used an ini file and retrieved the information via an API call.
How can I do the same thing in VB.net??? I understand that ASP.net has the webconfig file but what about Vb.net??
Thanks in advance

You can get away from ini files and move to xml files for settings. That is basically what a config file is. I would do a search on the forums for XML and see what others have posted to get you started. I think lethal posted some code a while back to use to store settings as xml.....or was it cander.....or....there are too many smart people here....not sure who it was.
Found a link to get you started:
