Prefs and Settings - best practices

[Chipp Walters]

Mikey,

I like to store them in the user prefs area (different folder for each 
OS) as XML files. They're easy to parse, and easy to write to and allow 
for future updatability.

And, because stacks are difficult to create (on the fly) from a server, 
I generally only use them if I have to store some sort of binary data 
(logo) with pref files. If you're interested in cross-platform 
compatiblity, it's best to stay out of the registry, unless you have to 
be there (file associations).

best,

Chipp
