Recommended way to read and write .ini files

Question

Are any methods available in VBA to read and write INI files? I know I could use;

Open \"C:\\test.ini\" For Input As #1

...and parse the data.

Answer 1

FileSystemObject object with a [TextStream](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/314cz14s(VS.85).aspx) is the usually recommended method for reading and writing textfiles in VBA.
