+1  Q: 

Modify .suo file

I need to modify a .suo file.

Basically, I have a client-server application. The client needs a "cookie" to log into the server, which is generated every day and retrieved on the client machine by another process. This "cookie" needs to be set in the "Debugging Command Arguments".

I want to automate this process by modifying the .suo file directly through another app / script. Is there a way I can do this?

I looked at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/54052/tool-to-view-the-contents-of-the-solution-user-options-file-suo, but that did not help much. I have no idea about those methods and would need a bit more direction.

+2  A: 

I think that the Command Line Debug parameters are stored in the proj.user file, yeah? That's just an XML file and should be easy enough to modify.

You are right. Pretty daft of me to not even think of that :)Thanks!
