Ummm... it is a file, but you can write out the file yourself if you like. You can define your own serialization scheme or use .NET's.

XML and LINQ are really creat for that kind of stuff.
Take a look at this: http://www.hookedonlinq.com/LINQtoXM...eOverview.ashx

You could make an XML file looking somthink like this:

<settings>
<myButton color="blue" text="click me" />
</settings>

The great thing about these kind of files is that you can but alot of stuff into them, and have it organized neatly.
You could also make an .ini-style file, but i think you would have to make your own parser for such a file.
