Howq would you replace a value in vb?

Example:
[abc]
abb=asd
acc=asdf

If I want the result to be:
[abc]
abb=asdfghj
acc=asdf

Without resaving it as a new file how would I edit it with a ini edit class?

In C++ its WritePrivateProfileString

So to use it in VB.NET you can do this [Taken From Here]

Code:
<DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError:=True)> _
Private Shared Function WritePrivateProfileString(ByVal lpAppName As String, _
                        ByVal lpKeyName As String, _
                        ByVal lpString As String, _
                        ByVal lpFileName As String) As Boolean
    End Function


so using this:

Quote:
[abc]
abb=asd


lpAppName = "abc"
lpKeyName = "abb"
lpString = "asd"
lpFileName = "INIFile.ini"

Putting it in proper Function format will write the string "asd" to the key "abb" in the "abc" section, to INIFile.ini

There are a ton of classes made for VB6 for reading and writing to INI files. You can find a lot over at Pscode.com, or you can find a more professional one on VBAccelerator's website.
