        I should also mention the one other thing that you need to set for  
preferences to work correctly: the app's BasePrefKey property. This  
identifies all preferences as belonging to this app, as opposed to a  
different app. For example, if you have a textbox called 'txtName' on  
a form named 'CustomerForm', its Value would be stored as [app's  
BasePrefKey].CustomerForm.txtName.Value. If you re-used that form in  
another app, you'd give that new app its own BasePrefKey, and so when  
that same form is run in the new app, it would use [newapp's  
BasePrefKey].CustomerForm.txtName.Value as the key to store its  
value, making it distinct from the first app.
