Better Function to write to an ini file by MrMoocow
Posted: 4 Aug 01
|
Here is a better function I whipped up to read from ini files, it still uses the default api call, but it does it in one line of code 4 u.
Instead of you having to write 3 lines of code each time for each line now you use one.
'This may maynot work I am working on it
Declare Function GetPrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, ByVal lpKeyName As Any, ByVal lpDefault As String, ByVal lpReturnedString As String, ByVal nSize As Long, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long ' Write INI file
Public Function Readini(Header As String, Value As String, Default As String, ini As String) As String
Read = Space(255) ' buffer\final variable
Read2 = GetPrivateProfileString(Header, Value, Default, Read, 255, ini)
Read = Left(Read, Read2)
Readini = Read
End Function
