ini file 2
Fellow Programmers,
I've gained some knowledge about ini files since my first posting. However, I still have one question remaining. Why/How does the following code pull a value out of the registry instead of from win.ini? Private Declare Function GetPrivateProfileString _ Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringA" _ (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, ByVal lpKeyName As String, _ ByVal lpDefault As String, ByVal lpReturnedString As String, _ ByVal nSize As Long, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long Private Sub readFromINI() Dim sFileName As String, sHeader As String, sKey As String Dim buf As String * 256 Dim length As Long sFileName = "C:\WINDOWS\WIN.INI" sHeader = "intl" sKey = "sCountry" length = GetPrivateProfileString( _ sHeader, sKey, "<no value", _ buf, Len(buf), sFileName) MsgBox Left$(buf, length) End Sub Thanks in advance, Christmas May |
