Don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I have a coding problem.

I'm developing a program that starts some installationfiles. In the settings form I want the user to be able to edit the path of the installfiles. What's the right way to make the app dynamic?

1. Don't know if xml is an option in VB Express 2005? If so, how?
2. Tried to add a database to the app but it doesn't even recognize sql server 2005. Must be a config problem but don't know how to correct it.
3. Or maybe as simple as saving the info in a txt file?

Thanks in advance...
