best way to allow user to change setting

[GS]

Should I build separate app the change user settings or just provide a
config/option tab? with my shallow vb experience, it seems to be easier to
persist user preferences in some sort of db instead of project user setting
file especially dealing array like options. is that true?

that is a good article but what about the visual studio express 2005's user
and application settings? or they all store to the application folder or all
users?
