INI Based Tab Creation

[ghetek 0]

Hey guys!

I was sitting in bed with my girlfriend and going over chocolates that we have tried and liked from CocoBella. Naturally I decided to record our notes in INI form because it seemed convenient at the time:

Chocolate Notes.txt

[tried and disliked]
Vietnamese Cinnamon=Christopher Elbow
Ginger Heart=Recchiuti

[Tried and liked]
Rasberry=Christopher Elbow
Nougatelle=Michel Cluizel
Peanut Brittle=Christopher Elbow
Key Lime=Norman Love
Cookies and Cream=Normal Love
Peanut Butter and Jelly=Norman Love
Venezuela Dark=Christopher Elbow

[Want to try]
Palet Frambois=Michel Cluizel
Mint Chocolate Chip=Norman Love
Rasberry Praline=Läderach
Tiramisu Truffle=Mary Chocolatier
New York Cheesecake=Norman Love
Passionfruit Truffle=Läderach
Strawberry Cup=Parlineur Van Coillie
Coco Bello Praline=Läderach
Vanilla Cupcake=Norman Love
Rose Caramel=Recchiuti
White Truffle=Läderach
Champignon=Marquis De Sevigne
Yuzu=Oriol Balaguer

Soon I decided that I need to have a pretty GUI to look at. I hated the idea of making a static number of tabs so I came up with this:

TabsByINI.au3

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
;Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)
Dim $db = @ScriptDir & "\Chocolate Notes.txt"
Dim $Sections = IniReadSectionNames($db)
Local $TabItem[$Sections[0] + 1], $TabMenu, $msg

GUICreate("INI by Tabs", 750, 650); will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

GUISetFont(9, 300)

$TabMenu = GUICtrlCreateTab(10, 10, 735, 635)

For $i = 1 To $Sections[0]
    $SectionContents = IniReadSection($db, $Sections[$i])
    $TabItem[$i] = GUICtrlCreateTabItem($Sections[$i])
    $TabItem[$i] = ""
    For $ii=1 To $SectionContents[0][0] ; [n][0]=key [n][1]=value
        $TabItem[$i] = $tabItem[$i] & $SectionContents[$ii][0] & " = " &  $SectionContents[$ii][1] & @CRLF
    Next
    GUICtrlCreateLabel($TabItem[$i], 30, 80, 600, 20 * $ii)
Next

GUICtrlCreateTabItem(""); end tabitem definition

GUISetState()

; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()

    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
    If $msg = $TabMenu Then
        ; display the clicked tab
        WinSetTitle("My GUI Tab", "", "My GUI Tab" & GUICtrlRead($TabMenu))
    EndIf
WEnd

I really just slapped it together sorry for ugly code. Hope this helps someone.
