Category: General VBA/VB6 : INI File
Description: Working with Initialization (*.INI) files

Module: modINIFile

Windows Initialization (INI) files

Initialization (INI) files are the primary mechanism that 16-bit Windows programs use to store setting information. Additionally, Windows itself stores its settings for the most part in various INI files in the Windows directory. Even in the 32-bit world, INI files are still used. This category contains procedures to read and write INI file values in both the built-in Windows files and your own custom INI files. Windows splits INI file access into two categories: 1. INI Operations: all operations are hardcoded to go to the WIN.INI file located in the Windows directory. 2. Private INI: all operations work on the INI file specified in the call. Use the "private" INI functions to work with all INI files other than WIN.INI. Interestingly, you can use the "private" INI functions on WIN.INI by specifying WIN.INI as the file to work with.
