    appSettings file attribute

    I've been linking to an external config file using <appSettings file="blah"> since VS 2003. I just created my first 2010 project, and I get no data from my file, nor any error. Has anybody else ran into this?

    [edit]
    This functionality works as expected when I point to 3.5 framework.
    Another note, if I copy the other config to the debug directory and reference it by file name it works. When I use the UNC path it doesn't. The UNC path has worked for many of my past projects. Maybe it's a 4.0 security setting somewhere?

    Does your code in post #46 look like my code in #45? No, it doesn't. Therefore, wrong is how it looks. - jmcilhinney

    Tried trusting the network share where the application is saved, and the share where the config file is saved using caspol.exe, noluck. If I copy the project to my local computer, it runs as expected.
