where to store user settings

[Bob]

I am a new java convert to asp.net. I'm trying to create
an web application that will allow users to change their
custom settings easily. Is there a class in .net that is
similar to java's Property class that can deal with
user's custom settings?

Hi Bob,

Not sure that this is what you're after, but the usual way is to create an
ArrayList to hold the preferences:

After that you can store them permanently in SQL Server and fetch them into
a Session object for use during browsing:

I think you can store custom information of user to
database and then you can write a class for them setting.

You should use an <appSettings> tag under <System.Web> in web.config. I
believe there is also a class that encapsulates this and you can break out
of the web.config file (like when you have thousands of users to track) by
specifying a type attribute.

This should get you started finding what you need.
