Isolated Storage Setting (saving & retrieving from different views)

I have two views (MainPage.xaml & Settings.xaml)

I want to save a string in my Settings view & retrieve its content in the MainPage

Here's my code, but i'm getting an error:

Settings.xaml.cs :

var settings = IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings;
                settings.Add("setPlan", "This is my text that i want to retreive");

MainPage.xaml.cs:

var location = settings["setPlan"].ToString();

THE ERROR IS :The name 'settings' does not exist in the current context.

But isn't this "setPlan" string supposed to be in my sandBox and accessible from any view?

Don't you need:

var settings = IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings; 
var location = settings["setPlan"].ToString(); 

in MainPage.xaml.cs ?

settings looks like it's scoped to the method it's being called from, in Settings.xaml.cs.
