Can I move values from settings.settings file to web.config file?

Question

When I added a web reference to a ASMX web service to my web project, it created a proxy, but with some settings in settings.setting file. Is there a way to move them to web.config file?

If required you can remove default settings and create some custom settings (appSettings can be used also). Here is one of my posts how to create custom settings inside web.config:

C# WCF System.Configuration.ConfigurationErrorsException: Unrecognized element 'ManagedService'

But you will have to set service client properties using code (read custom settings, set client properties).

Hope this answers your question.
