NewScripter NewScripter Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-05-01 Posts: 9	Hi, I am wondering if there's a way to remove a KEY in an INI file. I can use WriteProfileString() to modify the VALUE of a KEY, but I want to completely remove the KEY. Thanks!

If the 4th argument is '' (the empty string) the key is deleted. If the 4th argument an the 3rd argument are '' the entire section given by the 2nd argument is deleted. Remember that the strings for the file, section and key name aren't case sensitive. Hope this helps. Pierre _________________________ Comments always welcome.
