Config Files

Question

I have created a .dll and it has a .config file. The application which will call this .dll also will have a .config file. If within my .dll I have code such as:
string con = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DB"].ConnectionString;

Does the .dll look in its own .config first and then looks in the app's .config or does it decide some other way?
