BizTalk 2013 Using External Assembly using C Sharp Calling a Web Service

Question

Hi:
I have a assembly dll and its .config file, tested and knowing it works. I like to use the dll in my BizTalk Map. Used gacutil
to register the dll, AND hand copied the .config file right next to it. Wrote a test program, works fine outside of BizTalk.
In the BizTalk MAP, during VS testing, I get the following error.
This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this contract could be found in the client element.
My .dll configuration file is not getting recognized.
Appreciate any hint or guidance.
Cheers, Toraj

This a great recommendation. For now, I modified the BTSNTSvc.exe.config and BTSNTSvc64.exe.config.
Sample as follows.
I am containing getting the same error in VS during testing my map. Error is "...This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this
contract could be found in the client element."
