Hi Experts:

I have a question about the calculator program "calc.exe" on Windows XP. It
run on either "Standard" or "Scientific" mode based on user's selection.

I like to know where exactly user's selection is saved?

Thanks in advance.
Polaris

Not in XP, though it may be in Vista.
For XP....
Look in Win.ini under the section [SciCalc]
layout=1 for Standard
layout=0 for Scientific
