Ini files are necessary for a storage of an information and parameters of the programs. It is possible to do it with use a registry.This example create HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Greatis Software\Example key with "First page" parameter, which stores a path to rtf file. This file will be loading from this parameter after Button2 click event.
You can store boolean, time and others types of variables in registry also.
