[WriteLog] editing writelog.ini

[Gary AL9A]

Nick,

I'm running Vista Home Premium 32 bit and can save changes to the 
writelog.ini file without a problem.  Are you sure you are saving the 
correct ini file to the correct location.  Under Vista there are two 
writelog.ini files.  One is in C:\Windows, but that's just a dummy that 
isn't used by WL under Vista.  The location you want is in the Virtual Store 
path such as

C:\Users\AL9A\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\writelog.ini

If you have User Account Control enabled in Vista you must be logged in as 
the Administrator in order to save changes to this file.  Alternatively, go 
to the Control Panel and disable User Account Control.  This should let you 
save the ini file changes, but it will still be to the file in the Virtual 
Store path.

73,
Gary AL9A
