Thanks for your replies. I'll take a look at the sites that Cookie posted when I get a chance.
 
For what Choil said, I really think I would want to save my programs settings to an ini file because I have tones of controls that need to be saved.

For example: What my program does is it highlights the editbox with the number you specify.

Here’s a picture so you can see what I’m talking about (so I don't sound crazy):



Now I want to save the name's the user types in, the numbers in the edit boxes, the color of the edit boxes, the money amount at the top and the starting date at the top. Then also have it reload the exact same way through the settings file I saved all of it to.

Now I know using 160 editboxs and about 20 static text boxes to make up a pretty good chart (I have to say) is stupid, but you have to give me credit for thinking of a way that I knew how to do it

With that said you should see why I would prefer the ini file better than the registry.

*DJeX readys up for the many sugestions and surprised remarks for his dodgy coding lol*

OH and the best part is the program works!


I attached it if anyone wants to give it a try. Thanks.
