  Given a 0-dimensional scheme $\mathbb{X}$ in the projective $n$-space
$\mathbb{P}^n_K$ over a field $K$, we are interested in studying the K\"ahler
different of $\mathbb{X}$ and its applications. Using the K\"ahler different,
we characterize the generic position and Cayley-Bacharach properties of
$\mathbb{X}$ in several certain cases. When $\mathbb{X}$ is in generic
position, we prove a generalized version of the Ap\'{e}ry-Gorenstein-Samuel
theorem about arithmetically Gorenstein schemes. We also characterize
0-dimensional complete intersections in terms of the K\"ahler different and the
Cayley-Bacharach property.
