Excellent advice

Strengths: Simple code to access INI files on all versions of Windows
Weaknesses: None found
Details: Dear Sir - you are a real gentlemen !
Your code helped me out of the mud of a access-INI-files-on-multiple-servers-by-vbscript task.
In all my projects I avoid using the registry and prefer good old INI files - most of the times accessing by API in VB6.
This time I had to provide a monitoring function called by an application which does only VBScript. My first tries failed until I realized that there is no DECLARE External Function in VBScript.
Google and Codango helped me to find the good solution.
Yours,
Meiki

Strengths: Read/Write support, comments...
Weaknesses: None !
Details: I'm carrying out the development of an asp application that reads an excel file, and then generates an html application. To do this, I need to read an ini file first, and then write to another one according to what's in the excel file. I'm using those functions for 2 weeks, and it resisted to all the tests my application have undergone. Thanks to you !

Strengths: Short, and very Flexible. Good parsing routine
Weaknesses: None
Details: I really like the fact you pass in the the Key you are looking for and it returns it regardless if it's at the beginning middle or end of the the INI file. The Parsing and File read function a well done and provide for easy error handling.
