Create .INI File

[westin444]

Ok, i've been studying winsock in vb6 quite a bit now.  I'm making a vb6 program that can be embeded into the source for a personal messaging system.  I am using the .INI module that eclipse uses, but I need one for creating ini files.  If anyone knows the script for this it would be greatly appreciated.  :)

Oh, and i'm using VB6  :sign10:

considering eclipse can create .ini files, try looking through the source for that section

[westin444]

I have found ones that will write to an EXISTING ini file, but none that can create…

In Eclipse:
Call WriteINI(blablabla)

It will create one if it doesn't exists…

ok, I want to create it in the following folder.

The name of the folder will be a string,
note:  **Whoto** and **folderdet** are both strings containing info.
```
WriteINI(app.path & "\inboxs\" & whoto & "\" & filedet & ".ini\")
```

I'm not sure if writeini will make a folder but I do have a mkdir snippet somewhere ill post it here tommarrow  I'm away from my comp now.

I'm sorry, but… that's only the path...
Call WriteINI("test", "subtext", 1, (App.Path & "\inboxs\" & whoto & "\" & filedet & ".ini\"))

If you run windows when you first save save as 'file'.ini if you don't need the program to make the .ini (it depends how the source is made)
Otherwise this post is useless X3

inorder to create the folder with the name, before you use the writeini, run

```
call mkdir$(app.path & "\inboxs\" & whoto & "\")

```
then put the write ini below that..l.
thats the best way i could think of atleast
