I am trying to use my own file for storing variables ala WIN.INI use GetProfile & related WIN API calls. My question is…how can I get windows to default to *my* file spec and not to win.ini? I have seen other apps which use *.inf or *.ini files, I assume (correctly/incorrectly) that it can be done. Any body got any ideas? Thanks Hank Marquis There is 1 Reply.

Hank, You need to use GetPrivateProfileString, GetPrivateProfileInt, and WritePrivateProfileString. Hope this helps. Costas P.S. Thanks for Numbers!
