Hi,

My application will need a .ini file that will contain certain settings for it. The reason why I would like to use a .ini file and not the registry is because it would be easier for non-computer people to edit/modify it. I know on the desktop computers there are functions that write directly to .ini files to the right sections and so on (such as WritePrivateProfileString) and functions that write to the registry such as WriteProfileString. I know there is an ADS utility out there that reads a .reg file and writes it to the registry but I would like to read/write to an .ini file. Do you know if there is anything available for that or do I have to implement my own parser ?

Thanks,
Marius

The PrivateProfileString APIs available on the desktop are not supported or implemented in the CE operating system. You'll have to write your own parsing routines.
