Hi there, just for anybode who is interested in this issue: Thanks dG for your suggestion, but I didn´t want to put so much effort in it. Therefore I just added a line on the bottom in a section called "dummy" wiht the normal wix tool kit. It seems that most ini-parsers are takting the last line for granted and overwrite a key, that occur more above.
