Create .Bat File To Add Text Line To .Ini File?

  • 8

I have the need to create a .bat file that will add a specific text line to a .ini file.

The text line should go specifically in one point of the .ini, otherwise it won’t show a Toolbar that’s needed.

It should go right after the [Environment] bracket and all of its content finishes.

The text line is:

[Toolbar]
OrthoCad=Models,Start OrthoCAD with this patient’s info,c:\dolphin\buttons\orthocad.bmp,C:\Program Files (x86)\Cadent\OrthoCad\OrthoCad.exe -patient_id={PatientID}

The .ini file location is C:\Windows\Dolphin.ini

Thanks for any help provided!
