Application Settings unavailable in Forms?

[j0em0mma]

I have created two string application settings for DatabaseName and DatabaseServer by right clicking the project, choosing properties then settings. I have saved and rebuilt the project. I then enter the following code:

dim strDBName as string = my.settings.

into the load section of my login form (I want to move this to the DAL, but trying to test it first) None of the settings I've set appear when I type the period following "My.settings". Am I missing something? Also, I notice that when I do this in the DAL, I get an larger selection of properties and methods, but still not my settings.

2nd part of question: If I define application settings in my main project, will they be accessible to referenced projects like the DAL, assuming I can even get the original project to recognize them?

Welp, Visual Studio just doesn't appear to be that "Intellisensible." I just removed the 2nd setting, rebuilt, added it back, rebuilt again and now I get the proper list of My.Settings properties and methods. Pretty Screwy...
