This part of the example is superfluous:
...
if not FileExists(IniFile) then begin
Sett := TIniFile.Create(IniFile);
Sett.UpdateFile; // Create empty file.
Sett.free;
end;
You can use TIniFile.ReadXXX on a non existing file: it will return the value you supplied as "default" (it does the same for an empty file). --Bart (talk) 23:53, 24 April 2021 (CEST)
OK, I have in my notes not to do that but I cannot demonstrate it leading to problems now ! So I don't know where I got that idea from. I will remove that section, thanks Bart. --Dbannon (talk) 02:24, 25 April 2021 (CEST)
