I have a need to detect if a particular Slot exists in the .config file for an application. Just the Slot not whether any value lines exist under it.
There doesn't seem to be a way to do this via gb.settings? I have tried using If Settings.Keys["Filter"] then but this seems always to be true. Similarly If Settings["Filter"] then always seems to be false. So is there a way to find out if a Slot does exist? ---- more info ----- The problem is that the value lines depend on about 8 text boxes set or cleared by the user. If one or more of the text boxes are empty then that value line will not appear under the [Filter] slot. So I can't detect the existence of the slot by detecting a particular value line. In fact if they clear all the filter strings then that whole slot will disappear. Thus I need to check if the slot exists, so then I could If Settings.Exist["Filter"] then GetFilterSettings Else SetDefaultFilter Endif -- Bruce <bbr...@paddys-hill.net> Paddys-Hill dot net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
