Hi all,
I have a ini file that looks like this:

[Settings]
UpdateExePath=H:\intranet\timesheets\
FileName=update.bat


Now here is my Code (API Declarations are already made)


Dim strBuffer as String

strBuffer = space(255)

n% = GetPrivateProfileString("Settings", "UpdateExePath", "", strbuffer, Len(strbuffer), inifile)

sUpdatePath = LTrim$(RTrim$(strbuffer))
sDrive = Left$(strbuffer, 2)


q% = GetPrivateProfileString("Settings", "FileName", "update.bat", strbuffer, Len(strbuffer), inifile)

sFileName = strbuffer


FullPath = sUpdatePath & sFileName

msgbox FullPath, 64, "Full Path and File"

Please pardon the coding

Anyway, When I do the message box, only the 'sUpdatePath' variable is seen and 'sFileName' is nowhere. I've checked to make sure the sFileName gets a value and it does, but then loses it when combined together.
It seems sUpdate won't let sFile show itself.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong or not doing?

I'm using VB3 Prof

Thanks,
JazzBass
