What is the best way of accessing info from ini files from VC++ (in VS.NET).

MFC's CStdioFile is probably the easiest way to open the file if it's in
text...
Then use the readline method to check each line...

You'll want something like a list of keywords, which you can check your read
line against.

Good luck.

Try using the GetPrivateProfileXXX/WritePrivateProfilexxx APIs.

Or you could use the functions designed for ini-files: GetProfileString,
WriteProfileString, GetProfileSection et al.
