Never tried that method. I ported all this over from Windows so used same or similar. I used the array for each line in the file. I use it for configuration files. Settings is great I love that feature but if I need the config in another area I use my own. As far as I know using settings in gambas is limited to just that user.
I mean as in the settings command.
