trying to append lines to an INI section

[gcue]

as part of a for loop, im trying to append lines to an INI section.

ive tried using

_FileWriteToLine($ini, 6, "PC=" & $aResult, 0)

but that doesnt seem to write anything

so i tried using

IniWriteSection($ini, "LOCATION1_ASSETS", "PC=" & $aResult, 0)

but that just keeps replacing the same line

Have you tried to open the file before trying to write to it?

In an INI file you can not use two keys with the same name in the same section so none of the INI functions will work for you. If you manually insert a line into a section which has the same key name as another, then only the first one will be found during an INI operation.

still the same problem

If FileExists ("\\" & $aResult & "\c$") Then

$user = RegRead("\\" & $aResult & "\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Altiris\Altiris Agent\Inventory", "PrimaryUser")

IniWriteSection($ini, "LOCATION1_ASSETS", $user & "=" & $aResult, 0)

EndIf

First of all, for a single entry you don't need IniWriteSection(), INIWrite() is enough. Secondly you don't put the = sign in the key name So instead of "PC=" you want "PC". Thirdly if the Key PC already exists then an IniWrite() of any type will only update that key with a new value and then you will only see it if the value has changed. As I said before, you can not have two key names of the same name in the same Ini section. Edited June 2, 2008 by GEOSoft
