    Api in C#

    I would like to access my ini file from C#, but looks
    like C# doesn't support the Api function,
    GetPrivateProfi leString() which I used to read from an
    ini file in VS 6. Is there anyway to use this function,
    or other ways to access an ini file from C#? Thanks.

      Whilst Microsoft recommends using XML now - some of us still need to support
      ini file for legacy reasons. You can use PInvoke and the Kernal.dll to gain
      access to GetPrivateProfi leString()

          Take a look at http://www.mentalis.org/soft/class.qpx?id=6
          It's a wrapper around the GetPrivatProfil eString and
          WritePrivatePro fileString functions.

              Thanks.

              The dll is called kernel32.dll.[color=blue]
