Reading INI or TXT files

[jca]

Hi! At the application startup, I have FileMaker calling a WinBatch script to check if a certain registry key has been created or not (piracy protection). The WinBatch script writes the result (key exists or not) in an INI files, then I need to be able to read it with FileMaker. Anyone would know anything? Thank you!

Hi, Jean. You may be able to do this with something as simple as an import, depending on how much data your .ini file has. If it is only one line, this is a piece of cake. If it is more, you may need to use a plugin such as Troi File.

Can you post a sample .ini?

You'll need to use Troi or a similiar file plugin, as I mentioned to you on the WinBatch web site.
