Hello Alan,

Thanks for the reply. Didn't even know that function existed. It is
close, but I want to make the application where the user can literally
just plop the files in their web root and it just works. Don't want
the user to have to worry about moving the .ini file or selecting a
different folder as the root. The settings/config file will hold
passwords, etc. The GetProfileSections function also seems to only
work on App load like my current solution.

Thanks again though. I can definitely see myself using this function
in the future. Anyone have any other suggestions?
