Hello:

I've defined two application settings in my web.config file. But in the
following code :

        Dim rootWebConfig1 As System.Configuration.Configuration
        rootWebConfig1 =
System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(Nothing)
        If (rootWebConfig1.AppSettings.Settings.Count > 0) Then

            sField1 = rootWebConfig1.AppSettings.Settings("field1")
            sField2 = rootWebConfig1.AppSettings.Settings("field2")

        End If

rootWebConfig1.AppSettings.Settings.Count always returns 0.

What am I doing wrong?

For one, you are asking in a classic ASP forum. You might have better luck
in [microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet].
