Insert new key into appSettings.config

[paxil]

I want to be able to add a new key to the appSettings.config file. I can do the write xml and update existing entries no problem, but cannot add new lines? Any help would be much appreciated.

For example:

Before the add:
<appSettings>
<add key="DatasourceConnection" value="server" />
</appSettings>


After New Key added:
<appSettings>
<add key="DatasourceConnection" value="server" />
<add key="LDAPBinding" value="NEW KEY" />
</appSettings>

You would need to call MSXML directly to insert an element like that.

This is now supported in v8.6. See the attached sample.

Thanks for the quick response and I'm glad its been added to the latest release because I was having issues with the VB Script method. I will update my post as soon as I upgrade and test this out.
Thanks
