One VB.NET app, Multiple .config files

[Guest]

Hi,
Is there a way in .NET 1.1 to have to have one VB app use two different
..config files. We have one program which is used for two different
customers; each customer will have his own config file with his specific
folder and file names/locations.
I was thinking I could pass a parameter to the .exe to tell it which config
file to use.
Is this possible, and does anyone have any sample code?
Thanks,
John

Why don't have a config file that has the common things. You can have .ini
files that have other things not common to each other. There is nothing
stopping you from creating and just reading your own configuration files,
They are just text files anyway. Why make it anymore complicated than
needed?

The question is, will the application be launched by different users
under different logged on profiles or different users logged on with
the same profile?

The program will always be launched by the same user/profile.
