Hi Gilles, There's nothing really wrong with the syntax you are using. The problem here is that deleting a section of an INI file (using deletesetting) used to work in Uniface 9.3, but since version 9.4 it will return an error (the mentioned error -1118). This looks like a bug. Sorry. I had a quick look into the known issues list, but this apparently has not been reported before. I'll create a new bug report for this. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Daniel Iseli Uniface Technical Support

Just a quick update: I've created in meantime the BUG#31496 (deletesetting: deleting an empty section is failing since version 9.4.01) for this problem.
