user.config file

[Mark]

Do user.config files work for local development of a web service? I am
testing a winform app that calls a web service on my local machine. I want
to override a web.config setting with a user.config setting ... but it seems
to be avoiding using the user.config file. When I use user.config files in
an ASP.NET application, they work great. The user.config file is in the
root of the web service folder, just as it would in a web application.

Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
