Because my OL addin will be using SQL, I need to store the configuration string etc.. somewhere. I realize I can create my own Outlook.exe.config but won't that be overwritten if I use another program that uses the same technique.

How do I handle configuration files at runtime? Do you have any examples?

Hi Charles.

I would suggest you to put the configuration file in the add-in installation folder. I can develop an example if you wish.
