How to read config file key in SQL Server 2008 sto

问题:

I have a settings.config file in my c://config

settings.config has this contents:

<filelocation>d://mydata</filelocation>

Now I want to get d://mydata file path in my SQL Server 2008 stored procedure, which will take this location as input for file creation path.

Please suggest!!

Simplified example but you could do something like this (assuming you can read the file from SQL Server):

declare @table table (Value XML)

insert @table
select a.* from openrowset (bulk 'C:\config', single_clob) a

select * from @table

select Value.value('filelocation[1]', 'varchar(100)')
from @table

Extend based on structure of your file.
