Saving checkbox

[CoMMiE]

Hi
how do i save the value inside the checkbox so that whenever the user load the program the checkbox will remain check?


Thanks in advance

You could use INI File.

Public 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

Public Declare Function WritePrivateProfileString _
Lib "kernel32" Alias "WritePrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal _
lpApplicationName As String, ByVal lpKeyName As Any, ByVal _
lpString As Any, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long



Public Function ReadINI(strsection As String, strkey As String, strfullpath As String) As String
   Dim strbuffer As String
   Let strbuffer$ = String$(750, Chr$(0&))
   Let ReadINI$ = Left$(strbuffer$, GetPrivateProfileString(strsection$, ByVal LCase$(strkey$), "", strbuffer, Len(strbuffer), strfullpath$))
End Function

Public Sub WriteINI(strsection As String, strkey As String, strkeyvalue As String, strfullpath As String)
    Call WritePrivateProfileString(strsection$, UCase$(strkey$), strkeyvalue$, strfullpath$)
End Sub


'Usage:

'Write
Call WriteINI("Check.ini", "Check", Check1.Value, "C:\Check.ini")

'Read
Check1.Value = ReadINI("Check.ini", "Check", "C:\Check.ini")
