INI Array Help Needed

[digitalexpl0it]

Hello I am trying to pull everything from a section in a ini file but need to batch it by each 4 lines then move to the next four lines in the section

my message box shows me the correct information but when it loops I get an error at $WorkingDir = $aArray[$iii][1]. So the idea is to have many entries under the [shortcuts] section without any limits. 

; Read the INI section. This will return a 2 dimensional array.
Local $aArray = IniReadSection($ssFilePath, "Shorcuts")

If Not @error Then
    for $i = 1 to $aArray[0][0]
        ; Set new timer
        $ii = $i
        $iii = $ii
        $iiii = $iii
        $ProgramEXEFullPath = $aArray[$i][1]
        ; update Timer to pull next line in INI file
        $ii = $i + 1
        $LNKPath = StringReplace($aArray[$ii][1],"[USERNAME]", @UserName)
        $LNKPath = StringReplace($LNKPath,"[PROFILEPATH]", @UserProfileDir)
        ; update Timer to pull next line in INI file
        $iii = $ii + 1
        $WorkingDir = $aArray[$iii][1]
        ; update Timer to pull next line in INI file
        $iiii = $iii + 1
        $Desc = $aArray[$iiii][1]
        ; debug msgbox
        msgbox(0,"INI File Varibles", $ProgramEXEFullPath & " | " & $LNKPath & " | " & $WorkingDir & " | " & $Desc)
        ; loop
        $i = $i +1  
    next
else
    msgbox(0,"Ahh Snap!", "Cannot read shortcuts.ini file, possible format incorrect or file currupted.")
endif

here is INI file

[Shorcuts]
ProgramEXEFullPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE
LNKPath=C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Desktop\Word 2010.lnk
WorkingDir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14
Desc=Microsoft Word 2010

Not sure why it errors, I am doing this using 2 lines but I cant get the erorr to stop using 4, any help is greatly appreciated.

For $i = enums the array already, so remove this line: $i = $i +1

Edit:

And use the Step method:

For $i = 1 To $Array[0][0] Step 4 ;(or 3?)

Sweet that worked, didn't know about the step that makes things a lot easier.

Your forgetting to use the "Step" to your advantage

[Step <stepval>]

For $i = 1 To $Array[0][0] Step 4

EDIT: To slow it seems.

digitalexpl0it,

If what you posted is the extent of your INI file you are overcomplicating this.  Consider the following...

; Read the INI section. This will return a 2 dimensional array.
local $ssFilePath = @scriptdir & '\initest.ini'
Local $aArray = IniReadSection($ssFilePath, "Shortcuts")

If Not @error Then
    $ProgramEXEFullPath = $aArray[1][1]
    $LNKPath = StringReplace($aArray[2][1],"[USERNAME]", @UserName)
    $LNKPath = StringReplace($LNKPath,"[PROFILEPATH]", @UserProfileDir)
    $WorkingDir = $aArray[3][1]
    $Desc = $aArray[4][1]
    consolewrite('$ProgramEXEFullPath  = ' & $ProgramEXEFullPath & @CRLF  & _
                 '$LNKPath             = ' & $LNKPath & @CRLF & _
                 '$WorkingDir          = ' & $WorkingDir & @CRLF & _
                 '$Desc          = ' & $Desc & @CRLF )
else
    msgbox(0,"Ahh Snap!", "Cannot read shortcuts.ini file, possible format incorrect or file currupted.")
endif

edit: Incidentally, I changed "shorcuts" to shortcuts".
