Hi,

Having browsed a lot through the forum and learned, I'm hoping you can help me with this one (first post).
I created a huge script copying SMS hardware/software inventory functionality supportinf all Windows OS's available. Everything working fine but, implemented on large networks the ini files (used for storing all the hardware information in pipe and quote delimited format for importing into a database) tend to grow quite a bit. When growing over approximately 50Kb, the WriteProfileString writes just half the line when a new machine wants to write his inventoried info and stops. New/Extra machines/lines don't get written at all.
In other ini files (software inventory) the ini file itself get's bigger but the individual lines are not as "wide"/the string after "@MACADDRESS" (="bla"|"bla"|... ) is not as long and works fine.

I know there is a max size on an ini file but haven't figured out a workaround within kix... Does anyone know a workaround ?

I'm using 3.63 with All OS's supported.... If you would like to see the code I have to e-mail it to you as otherwise this forum would be overloaded with code.... [Wink]

Hope you can help !
