Just read the ini file and extract the section names? Try this:
Code: Select all
If OpenWindow(0,100,150,400,400,#PB_Window_SystemMenu,"Test")
CreateGadgetList(WindowID())
ListViewGadget(0,50,50,300,300)
If ReadFile(0,"INIFile.ini")
Repeat
a$=ReadString()
If Left(a$,1)="[" ; Section name found!
a$=Left(a$,Len(a$)-1) ; Trim trailing bracket.
AddGadgetItem(0,-1,Mid(a$,2,999)) ; Add to list.
EndIf
Until Eof(0)0
CloseFile(0)
EndIf
Repeat
ev=WaitWindowEvent()
Until ev=#PB_EventCloseWindow
EndIf

It's probably not the "correct" way to extract section names, but it does the
job!
BTW, what happened to your site? "HTTP 404 - File not found"...

No problem... just whenever you can.

I read once that the Windows API-Commands handle only files <64Kb.
So if Fred uses Win-API it will have the same effect...
This would be really bad for things like contact list etc.
Have a nice day...

According to the Win32hlp file:
Windows 95: The specified profile section must not exceed 32K.
Windows NT: The specified profile section has no size limit.
I guess only Fred can answer whether he used the API or not... but the
Preferences() library is also for Linux, so perhaps he wrote custom code
instead of using the API.
