Saving decimals in ini

[Leander]

I set my app's version number to 1.3, call it global value U and save it as an ini item.

It does not work as only 1 is saved...when loading the ini item it is only 1 but not 1.3.

Can't decimals be saved in an ini?

Save them as strings and not values in the INI

Then just convert them as needed back into values.

Thanks but how can I convert them?

[Jeff]

str$() and val() convert items in the expression editor

Now it worked, thanks.
