I have some old functions that I wrote in VB6 that read from and write to an
INI file. Do I need to use this older code or is there a new .NET way of
doing this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi David,

Look at the AppSettingsReader class in .net. Here is some sample documentation
on it.

Instead of using INI file, you use an xml file called MyApp.exe.config.

Here is a uitility code for converting INI file to XML.

Read and Write application parameters in XML

Hope this helps!
