This feature will really help the team...

Say I have a Final Builder Project A performing 'n' number of tasks with different variables in different actions.

User should be able to link the Final Builder Project to a Text File and Final Builder should be able to pick the all the parameter values from the text file.....

Hi,   
 This should be possible using the Load Variables from INI action. Please see the help file for more info: [http://help.finalbuilder.com/Index.htm?loadvariablesfromini.htm](http://help.finalbuilder.com/Index.htm?loadvariablesfromini.htm)   
  
 Cheers,   
  
 Ben

I did try it but it is still not picking it…   
  
 This is what I’m doing   
  
 1. I have a nant build script. Im calling a nant build script with one target with 2 parameters   
 1. Version Number - Value as “Version” and Lable Number - Value as “Version”   
  
 This is how the ini file looks like   
  
 Version=“1.1.1”   
 Label=“E1.1.1”   
  
 These values are not getting picked…

Hi

I have attached an example project that demonstrates how to use an INI file to load variable values and pass these values to your Nant project.

I have commented the project to explain what I am doing.

Regards,

Steve
