How do I isolate a value in an external file that changes between 1 and 4 characters?


Recommended Posts

I have an external ini file. The contents of the file reference the hposition and vposition of a guiCreate Function. The problem I am anticipating is the numbers ranging from 1 to 1024 or 1 to 768. I want to use this ini file for two different scripts so I need the external file. How do I isolate the 2 separate numbers as local variables while my scripts are running?

ini example:

$hPosition = 80
$vPosition = 1

I have gotten this far:

$inifile = FileOpen("settings.ini", 0); the ini file holds the hovering button position values

If $inifile = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open settings.ini")
    Exit
EndIf

Would IniRead be the best option here?

$inifile = FileOpen("Mac.ini", 0); the ini file holds the hovering button position values
$var = IniRead("Mac.ini", "Desktop Position", "hPosition", "NotFound")
    MsgBox(0,"123",$var)

Ini File:

[Desktop position]
hPosition=80
vPosition=1

I figured it out.
