Description

INI files are simple text files with a basic structure composed of sections, properties and values. The name "INI file" comes from the commonly used filename extension .INI, which stands for "initialization".
This VI opens an INI file, which its path is provided by the user using the Configuration File Path control, and reads multiple types of data types from the file- Boolean, Integer and string
