Hello:
 
I am trying to decide which report builder/generator is best and easiest for me to use.
 
1) I have tried: Pebbles Report tool and I really like it but its too new and does not have enough options.
 
2) I have tried: Report Builder 3.0 and its OK, but can not get it to work correctly with VS2010. Maybe its something that I am doing incorrectly.
 
3) Crystal Reports 2010. I have been looking where I can download it, but have not found where.
 
4) MS Excel... Its nice... But: How would I  execute the Excel worksheet from my forms.

Here is the sample code (not tested)
 
//Get all config files from directory 
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles (sourceDirectory, "*.config")
loop through each file, 
Read file line by line 
 
var fileStream = new FileStream(@"c:\file.config", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(fileStream, Encoding.UTF8))
{
string line;
while ((line = streamReader.ReadLine()) != null)
{
// process the line
if(line.contains("endpoint"))
{
//process ur end point here
}
}
}

first you need to find/prepare regular expression for endpoint string format.
Later you can read text of each file and find the matching text
