Hi Everyone,

I really hope someone can help me.
I've been using the micrsoft enterprise library since version 1 and I'm now
in the process of moving my project to VS 2005 and the latest enterprise
library.

In my project I use the configuration block from enterprise library.
So now I want to move to the configuration class that is in .NET 2.0

I don't know how to read and write my config data with the config structure
that I'm using.

Below is my config structure and class information that works whem I'm using
the configuration block of enterprise library.
What do I need to change to be able to do this with the configuration class
in .NET 2.0.

Currently the configuration data is in a seperate file but I dont care if it
needs to be in the app.config file. Either way will work for me.

I would really appreciate the help.

Here is my galactrixConfiguration.config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<galactrixConfiguration>
  <xmlSerializerSection type="Unison.Galactrix.Configuration.Settings,
Unison.Galactrix.Configuration, Version=1.5.0.3, Culture=neutral,

This is what my main class looks like:

namespace Unison.Galactrix.Configuration

  public class Settings
  {
    public const string SectionName = "galactrixConfiguration";
    //public const string ConfigurationNamespace =

    #region ... Private Properties ...

    private GlobalSettings global;

      umsLine = new UmsLineSettings();
    }

    #endregion

    #region ... Public Properties ...

    [Category("General")]
    public ReporterSettings Reporter

}

For each of these properties in my Settings class I have a class for that
property like:

    }

    #endregion

    #region ... Private Properties ...
