GetSetting Function Example
This example first uses the
SaveSetting statement to make entries in the WindowsMacintosh registry (or .ini file on 16-bit Windows platforms) for the application specified as
appname, and then uses the
GetSetting function to display one of the settings. Because the
default argument is specified, some value is guaranteed to be returned. Note that
section names can't be retrieved with
GetSetting. Finally, the
DeleteSetting statement removes all the application's entries.
' Variant to hold 2-dimensional array returned by GetSetting.
Dim MySettings As Variant
' Place some settings in the registry.
SaveSetting "MyApp","Startup", "Top", 75
SaveSetting "MyApp","Startup", "Left", 50
Debug.Print GetSetting(appname :=
"MyApp", section :=
"Startup",
_
key :=
"Left", default :=
"25")
DeleteSetting "MyApp", "Startup"
