Tammy,

In Excel you have to use the GetPrivateProfileString,
WritePrivateProfileString APIs, so requires much more coding. I have a demo
somewhere (using CDPlayer.ini), would you like me to dig it out?

I need to create a macro in Excel which reads from an ini file. Word
uses the system.privateprofilestring but I can't find anything like
this in Excel. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
