Do you know the location of the file? If so then you can just search the directory for the files: From MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365200%28v=vs.85%29.aspx That's a very good example.

I would suggest try using what is there and see what you come up with. If youy still need help post the code… Re: How Do i Parse??? 11 Years Ago by rubberman Look at the patterns. Each parameter in the config file has an '=' sign in it. The part before the '=' is the parameter, and the part after is the parameter value. So, do this. 1. Read line into buffer. 2. Check for comment character ('#') 3. if no comment, look for '=' using strchr(buffer, '=') 4. if return value from strchr is not null, you now … Re: How Do i Parse??? 11 Years Ago by Dudearoo Um, first ill go to rubberman, i want my buffer to be a String(Sorry I should have said something :)) so i dont have to worry about the possable Character Length, possabley if you can show me a diffrent way for 3.?

It's impossible to read. Are you sure you aren't missing bracket(s)? Why is there are a "return 0" at the bottom of the while loop? Why does the answer "yes" have a "break" statement in it? I thought "no" was supposed to break the loop from your description.
