Application.Config and Array Values?

[dm3281]

Hello, I am in the process of writing a service using C# and need to store a
list of customer numbers within the application.con fig. I can have over 200
customer numbers.

My service program will scan specific foldres based on the customer number.

How can I store this information in the application.con fig file?

I was trying to avoid having one value that used a comma-separated list. Or
is there a way to have a multi-line?

I need something like

G100BC
G110BC
G231BC
G342BC
G465BC
G778BC
G893BC
....
G999BC

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

You could also use a hash table as opposed to an array.
