Example of .INI file [WD examples]

Syntax
<Result> = INIRead(<Section> [, <Keyword> [, <Not found> [, <File>]]])
<Result>: Character string - Text sought or list of keywords found in the section (the keywords are separated by CR characters),
- List of file sections (the sections are separated by CR characters).
- Content of <Not found> in the following cases:
- the string corresponding to the keyword is empty,
- the keyword is not found,
- the file is not found.
- Empty string (if <Not found> is not specified or if it is equal to an empty string) in the following cases:
- the string corresponding to the keyword is empty,
- the keyword is not found,
- the file is not found.
<Section>: Character string Name of section to read in the INI file.
If this parameter and <Keyword> correspond to an empty string, <Result> contains the list of sections found in the file, separated by CR characters.
Remark: This name cannot contain the character "-"..
<Keyword>: Optional character string Name of the keyword containing the information to read.
If this parameter is an empty string, <Result> contains the list of keywords found in <Section>, separated by CR characters.
<Not found>: Optional character string or optional integer Text or integer to be returned if the requested keyword has not been read. This parameter corresponds to an empty string by default.
<File>: Optional character string Full name of file to read (with its extension). - The WIN.INI file will be used if this parameter is not specified.
- If only the name of the file is specified, the specified file will be searched for in the directory of Windows.
Remarks Reading the persistent values Miscellaneous - To read the registry, use the registry-specific functions: RegistryQueryValue, ...
- INI files are limited to 64 KB.
- TSE: The INIRead function uses the Windows directory by default..
Note: Until version 21, the INIRead function used the user's Windows directory by default..
Reminder: In TSE mode, access to a '.INI' file with a relative name is not recommended. We advise you to use one of the following solutions:  The RegistryXXX functions are not available. - If the INI file contains data containing spaces, this data must be enclosed between quotes. For example:
[MY SECTION]
mydata = "My data containing spaces"
