i have this little problem, i use the Application settings in VS 2010 to configure a path. now it would be convenient if i could add a variable there (its an argument) so it looks like this: C:\EXAMPLEDIR\… is there any way todo this?
Or should i change the settings at startup in code? is this even possible (i would like to avoid this).
thank you.

I solved this by creating a method that catches the setting. For example SPECIALFOLDER\Subdir… and then replaces the SPECIALFOLDER with an Environment.SpecialFolder. Voila. Now i can e.g. access the system folder in NT, XP and 7. Plus i can add more custom MY VARIABLE items to replace them accordingly.
