Return value
Integer. Returns default if filename is not found, section is not found in
filename, key is not found in section, or the value of key is not an integer.

Usage Use ProfileInt and ProfileString to get configuration settings from a profile file
you have designed for your application.
ProfileInt and ProfileString can read files
with ANSI or UTF16-LE encoding.
Examples This example uses the following PROFILE.INI file:
[MyApp]
Maximized=1
[Security]
Class = 7
This expression tries to return the integer value of the keyword Minimized in
section MyApp of file C:\PROFILE.INI. It returns 3 if there is no MyApp
section or no Minimized keyword in the MyApp section. Based on the sample
file above, it returns 3:
ProfileInt("C:\PROFILE.INI", "MyApp", "minimized", 3)
