Define "open a file", because the code does open the file after which you do not do anything with the Filehandle returned by FileOpen().

So what is it you want to do with the INI file?

Do you mean ShellExecute($FilePath) so you can actually see the text inside the file in notepad?

ShellExecute("john.ini", "", $varA & ":\history", "open")
