INIFile

Remarks

An INI file contains sections in a format like

[section]
key=value

A new INIFile object can be created using the NewINIFile method.

 Dim ini As INIFile
 Set ini = NewINIFile("c:\settings.ini")
 

If the file name does not specify the directory, then the file will be created in the Windows directory. In order to specify the current directory, preceed the file name with a current directory symbol ".".

 Dim ini As INIFile
 Set ini = NewINIFile(".\local.ini")
