Hi everyone,

How can you modify App.Config settings during an install, using a Setup and
Deployment project? I have a custom dialog that captures a property I use
for a special folder, but I also need to update an App.Config file setting
with this value and capture a couple of other settings for this App.Config
file.

TIA,
MH

I've just done that, I created a little windows form that reads and writes
the App.config file just like any xml file but that windows forums is loaded
at the end of the installation using the Custom Actions.

Check the post I made yesterday concerning the problem I run into, the post
is titled "update a config file with a form at deplyment time"
