Error: "The expected token is 'NAME'." in system.dll

Receiving this error:

Code:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationException' occurred in system.dll



Additional information: This is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'NAME'. Line 10, position 93.

when executing this code:

Code:

System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["ConnectionString"]

I'm using .NET 1.1 and cannot debug my windows application anymore.

Any ideas?

App.Config syntax error

It turns out that this error signifies a syntax error somewhere in the App.Config file. Most people seem to misspell something like <appSettings>. In my case, I wanted double quotes (") embedded in the value string. I tried ("") and (\") but neither one worked. So the question has changed.

How do you achieve the following without receiving an error:

Code:

<add key="ExcelFileFormat" value="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES"" " />
