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?

Under Vista it is HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Calc\layout (see this on my Vista
machine). But where it is saved under XP?

Thanks in advance.

I think we're experiencing deja vu all over again.

You asked this a day or so ago and then answered it for yourself.
 
Look in Win.ini under the section [SciCalc]
layout=1 for Standard
layout=0 for Scientific

Looks like you remember titles pretty good.

Maybe.

But it's rare that "Calc.exe" come up here for discussion very often,
and certainly not in the same week.
