ini password help

[Donald8274]

Hello, I need help with getting a password from an ini file I don't completely understand how to do it.

my code...

$password1 = IniRead($username3 &".ini", $username3, "Password", )

I don't know what to put in the last part for it to check to see if it is the right password. Any help would be appreciated.

The last optional parameter is a default value to return if an ini value is not found.

If thats not what you mean then you just have to check it against your password

If $password1 = "yourpassword" Then
   Msgbox(0,"YAY!!","Correct"}
Else
   Msgbox(0,"BOOOOO!!","Incorrect")
EndIf
Exit

I mean to check it against my own password so that way it checks to see if they are the same.

For example...

$password = inputbox("Password", "Please type in the password you wish to use.")
IniWrite("Account.ini", "Account", "Password", $password)
$passwordbox = inputbox("Password", "Please input the password")

If $passwordbox = ??? then
msgbox(0, "Yay", "Correct")
else
msgbox(0, "Aww", "Incorrect")
endif

I don't know how to get the password from the ini file like that.

Possibly

$password = inputbox("Password", "Please type in the password you wish to use.")
IniWrite("Account.ini", "Account", "Password", $password)
$passwordcheck = IniRead("Account.ini", "Account", "Password" )
$passwordbox = inputbox("Password", "Please input the password")

If $passwordbox = $passwordcheck then
msgbox(0, "Yay", "Correct")
else
msgbox(0, "Aww", "Incorrect")
endif

EDIT: sorry try it again

I have tried that but it keeps saying that the variable is not defined.
