iniwriting to multiple sections with a limit persection

[Hypertrophy]

how do i write to an ini file in [section1] and when there are 1000 keys in that section write to the next section [section2]?

Help me grasp the concept please. God Bless.

IniReadSection(). Then find the size of the array.

Just count the number of IniWrite you make into a particular section and when you reach 1000, change the section name you feed into IniWrite.

Do note that there is a file size limit with .ini in AutoIt. 33kb, I think. I think you need the Ex version for larger files. Not that familiar since I've never had the need to use large .ini files.

That is if you're doing the writing. If you're reading an .ini file, you use IniReadSection. The number of keys in the section is in the [0][0] element of the returned array from IniReadSection.

Thanks. that was too simple. i feel stupid now.

hmmm. i just a second ago read 10 sections containing 1000 keys in each section.
