delete [test] in ini-file

[onerrorgoto]

Hello

My inifile:
[XXXX]
Key=hello

Does anyone know how to effectivly delete the [XXXX] part
in a ini-file?

I know how to delete the "key=hello" part in an ini-file by using the "WritePrivateProfileSection" but that leaves the [XXXX] part in the ini-file. I want to get rid of that one too.

Thank you

By writing it yourself, not with the API!

How about this API Function:

Private Declare Function OSWritePrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32" Alias "WritePrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, ByVal lpKeyName As Any, ByVal lpString As Any, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long
   
OSWritePrivateProfileString "XXXX", 0&, 0&, "C:\YOUR_INI_File.ini"

Thank you Qwerty

It works perfect.

I also noticed that if I delet a heading with keyvalues in it, everything was deleted.

This is what I have been looking for.

Thanks again
