    Ok, I think I have been barking up the wrong tree here.
    I think my question should have been:-

    Can you point an <appSettings> key to the registry in the same way as you
    can for the <sessionState sqlconnectionstring />
    I have tried it but it just seems to return the string entered in the
    web.config.

    Sorry for the confusion.
    Mike.
