Hi Barry,

 BB> line 25 still has a problem.

Wait... BRB. 
Next time, I'd like you to at least quote the offending line, Barry. Makes 
searching for the problem a bit easier ;-)
In the version that's currently working here, it turned out to be line 28.
And you're right: it needs `` around it... ;-)
[Hi Peter Heberer, are you there?]
The line reading:
echo Syntax: IniRead   
should be:
echo `Syntax: IniRead   `
End of fix!
Thanks for that correction, Barry...
 BB> I note you changed your boss and are now getting the bat_p...
Yup, it's across the border, but my new boss can offer me everything I need 
;-)
 BB> Note there is a file echo that you may be able to connect to now that
 BB> I cannot. BFDN_MAIL or something like it.
I've heard of it, but I need to work out a few more details, before I can 
start lurking in there...
 BB> You will here more about it.
Please... I'm awaiting everything you can find on the subject ;-)

You're missing something vital indeed. 
The entry's name is *not* `2+2=4`... It's `2+2`
The entry's *value* is 4.
So, if you'd try: `Iniread a 1 2+2`, the batch should tell you that the entry 
`2+2` under section [1] in `a.ini` has the value `4` (in its own words, 
ofcourse ;-))
