Multiple values within appSettings

[kx10]

Hi,

Is it possible to store an array of reserved numbers within appSettings
in the Web.config file? I have very limited XML knowledge but am
guessing I might be able to create some child nodes to loop through
using XPath (if this doesn't offend the DTD).

Grateful of any help

Not sure about <appSettings> specifically, but you most certainly can create
your own custom sections in web.config:

However, you might prefer not to do this, especially if the reserved numbers
are likely to change, because any change to web.config will recycle your
app...

I'd almost certainly use a separate XML file for this, if not an actual
database...

Thank you for your reply,

This is part of a CMS anyway so I will have a read through and way
things up.
