The variable $Open_Pic contains the string path to the selected file. How are you trying to use that as a control ID in GuiCtrlRead()?

[CodyBarrett]

im trying to write the path selected by the user to the ini

[PsaltyDS]

im trying to write the path selected by the user to the ini

Then it should be just:

IniWrite('Server.ini','#Server','Display_Picture', $Open_Pic)

What was the point of having GuiCtrlRead() in there?

[CodyBarrett]

nope still doesnt write to the ini

[PsaltyDS]

nope still doesnt write to the ini

Try the full path to the .ini vice just 'Server.ini'.

[CodyBarrett]

you mean.. @scriptdir & 'Server.ini' cause ive tried that and still doesnt work

would you like me to post my entire code for the tcp server?(its kinda messy as it is)

That should be:

@scriptdir & '\Server.ini'

Note the trailing backslash is not included in the string returned by the macro.

thanks lol why do the backslashes mean different things? i mean its slightly confusing
