i have an Add-in on Visual studio 2003, i added an app.config file and i add
this code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
    <appSettings>
        <add key="NAME" value="MONITOR.TXT"/>
    </appSettings>
</configuration>

in the code of the Connect.cs file i try to read thi value
string name = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.Get("NAME");

the result is allways an empty string, how can i read this value

Was the app.config copied to the executables directory and named
yourAppName.exe.config
