Tom, WritePrivateProfileString is exactly what the doctor ordered for changing string key values and WritePrivateProfileINT for changing integer key values. Both of these calls can be used to change, add or delete lines or entire sections from an .ini file. WriteProfileString and WriteProfileINT are two more that can be used exclusively with with WIN.INI. In addition to making the desired changes in the win.ini disk file, they also force windows to re-read and update its internal copy of win.ini after each use. I'm not sure, but my guess would be that you'll have to restart windows for any changes in system.ini to become effective. –dennis
