dear MVP Michael Nemtsev
the work with such tools (.NET) become hard and hard. we are westing
all our time to look after answer.
take this simple example. you send us the mathod:

ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExe­­
cutingAssembly().Location)

I try it, but the "config.AppSettings.Settings.Count" is 0, no setting
loaded!

why not have Clear answer for this porpose of Setting for DLL!

the microsoft tell us that Open source is westing time, this is true,
but Microsoft tools suffer from the same problem.

Framework with no doc is not worth.

So have any body with true solution?

and more question. suppose we success to read the Setting, what about
my.setting in DLL?, even we success to read the setting, it's not
populate the natural my.setting object that VS create automatic code
for?
