BBoyBreaker,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum.

You need to save the return from IniRead into a variable and then use that:

$spath = IniRead ( "config", "main", "path", "default" )
Run($sPath)

As you are obviously a complete beginner (and no problem because we all were at one point) reading the Help file (at least the first few sections - Using AutoIt, Tutorials and the first couple of References) will help you enormously. You should also look at this excellent tutorial - you will find other tutorials in the Wiki (the link is at the top of the page). There are even video tutorials on YouTube if you prefer watching to reading.

Perhaps you can tell show us more of what you are doing so others can advise you accordingly.

As M23 advised, this works for me...

local $ret = iniwrite(@scriptdir & '\test.ini','PGM','Notepad','Notepad.exe')
if $ret <> 1 then
    ConsoleWrite('IniWrite failed' & @LF)
    Exit
EndIf

$ret = iniread(@scriptdir & '\test.ini','PGM','Notepad','XXX')

run($ret)
