the help has the following in whats new



The connections INI file is only used to store connection information. This makes it easy to copy, modify and backup these settings without worrying about breaking other configuration settings.
Configuring a workspace’s connections INI file path

If you wish to customize the connections INI file name or location you may do so by changing a workspace configuration. This value can be changed in the Studio via the Configure Workspace dialog by editing the "Connections Ini:" setting. By default, this value is blank (which means the default "data\DFConnId.ini" is used). When this configuration setting is changed both the tools (Studio, etc.) and your workspace applications will use this changed location.
The connections INI file can be merged with other INI style files as long as the following restrictions are met:


The file is a standard INI file with uniquely named [sections].
None of the existing section names start with "connection".
The tool that maintains this INI file does not remove settings it does not understand (i.e., it will not accidentally remove the [connection] sections).

For example, you could choose to merge the connections INI sections with the config.ws file by setting the "Connections Ini:" form to ".\Programs\config.ws".


the line

is not entirely accurate. the setting is actually ConnectionIni not Connections Ini as stated above

PS

Upon rereading the help I realised this is referring to the connection managaer dialog, not the acual config.ws
