    groups = config.SectionGroups;
Console.WriteLine("Groups: {0}", groups.Count.ToString());
foreach (ConfigurationSectionGroup group in groups)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Group Name: {0}", group.Name);
   // Console.WriteLine("Group Type: {0}", group.Type);
}

Dim groups As ConfigurationSectionGroupCollection = config.SectionGroups
Console.WriteLine("Groups: {0}", groups.Count.ToString())
For Each group As ConfigurationSectionGroup In groups
    Console.WriteLine("Group Name: {0}", group.Name)
    ' Console.WriteLine("Group Type: {0}", group.Type);
Next group

Configuration sections can be combined into groups for convenience and added functionality. Access the SectionGroups property to retrieve the ConfigurationSectionGroupCollection object representing the collection of section groups for this Configuration object. If this Configuration object represents an inherited view, the merged list of section groups will be returned.
