Is there a limit to how large an .INI file can be on Windows 95/98? I know there is a registry size limit. I am encountering a problem writing large amounts of data to an INI file, and it works perfectly on the Windows NT 4.0 platform.
Can someone enlighten me as to what the problem may be? Thanks!

Yes there is a difference. Under 9x the file can not exceed 32k and each section cannot exceed 2k.
I would suggest that, since you encountering a "too much data" problem with ini files, you should consider another approach to storing your data. The intent of ini files (and the registry) is the storage of a small amount of configuration data.
Thanks for the info on Windows 9x. Do you happen to know the size limit for an .INI file in Windows NT? Thanks for the help!
