Modify .INI file line

[Alex_W]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to read an entry in an ini file; if it reads "ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=NO" then my program is going to give the option to change that line to "ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=YES". My code below reads the file and picks up if the option is set to 'NO' but I can't seem to modify that line to change it to 'YES'....... (in red is where I'm trying to modify this text)

 Dim file As System.IO.File
        Dim reader As System.IO.StreamReader
        Dim line As String
        reader = file.OpenText("c:\file.ini")
        
        'loop through each line
        While reader.Peek <> -1
            line = reader.ReadLine()

            'check for specific word
            If line.Contains("ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=NO") Then
                If MessageBox.Show("The Invoice Required Dialog is disabled, do you want to re-enable it?", _
"Invoice Required Dialog", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Information,_
 MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1) = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then
                    [COLOR="Red"]line.ToString.Equals("ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=YES")[/COLOR]
                Else
                    Exit Sub
                End If
            End If
        End While
        reader.Close()

Any help appreciated.

Just to let everyone know I managed to use the following code to do this:

Dim fileContents As String = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(LANLocation & "\file.ini")

                fileContents = fileContents.Replace("ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=NO", "ShowInvoiceRequiredMsg=YES")

                System.IO.File.WriteAllText(LANLocation & "\file.ini", fileContents)

LANLocation being set to retrieve a registry value to where the .ini file is installed.

Cheers,
