I was looking at the RSS ScreenSaver resource kit this weekend and saw the
use of two types of properties that seem to both hold strings and I'm a bit
confused as to their differences. Can someone explain them please?

I'm looking for the differences between the Properties.Resources and the
Properties.Settings objects/methods/classes?

Thank you.
 
Thank you for the reference. I tried to read it, but unfortunately it was
mostly greek to me. :< The difference seemed to be when to use them but
that distinction is blurred as well. Where is the information stored? In
the exe or in a separate file?

Where would something like the db connection string go? What about a static
URI that is used in a class property/getter? What about for an application
title? For my app, I'm thinking of making a screen saver framework, and at
the end, I would like to save a solution/project and all I would have to
change are a few properties/settings and the compilation/release bin code
will contain the proper URLs to load in the screen saver, but that the end
user couldn't see (at least not an end user).

Any ideas? Thanks.
