Ein Beispiel wie man dank den API-Finktionen einfach auf Ini-files zugreiffen kann.

Als erstes mal unsere INi-Datei.

Konfig.ini

# Kommentar
[DATEISTEUERUNG]
InputOrdner =		(eingabe)
OutputHistory =		(eingabe)	
Dateialt =		(eingabe)
Dateineu =		(eingabe)
Ausgabe =		(eingabe)

Modul ini_handler (kannst du gleich so kopieren können)

Private Declare Function WritePrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32" Alias "WritePrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal lpApplicationname As String, ByVal lpKeyName As Any, ByVal lsString As Any, ByVal lplFilename As String) As Long
Private Declare Function GetPrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal lpApplicationname As String, ByVal lpKeyName As String, ByVal lpDefault As String, ByVal lpReturnedString As String, ByVal nSize As Long, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long
 
Sub SaveINISetting(ByVal Filename As String, ByVal Key As String, ByVal Setting As String, ByVal Value As Variant)
   Call WritePrivateProfileString(Key, Setting, Value, Filename)
End Sub
 
Function GetINISetting(ByVal Filename As String, ByVal Key As String, ByVal Setting As String, ByVal Default As Variant) As Variant
   Dim Temp As String * 1024
 
   Call GetPrivateProfileString(Key, Setting, Default, Temp, Len(Temp), Filename)
   GetINISetting = Mid(Temp, 1, InStr(1, Temp, Chr(0)) - 1)
End Function

Anwendung:

InputOrdner= GetINISetting("PathToFile\Konfig.ini", "DATEISTEUERUNG", "InputOrdner", "C:\Temp")
