Well as before, I am not exactly sure what you are trying to say. There is not much to it. I will post the entry from the help files.
GetSetting Function

Syntax
GetSetting(appname, section, key[, default])
The GetSetting function syntax has thesenamed arguments:
Part Description
appname Required.String expression containing the name of the application or project whose key setting is requested.
section Required. String expression containing the name of the section where the key setting is found.
key Required. String expression containing the name of the key setting to return.
default Optional.Expression containing the value to return if no value is set in the key setting. If omitted, default is assumed to be a zero-length string ("").

SaveSetting Statement
Saves or creates an application entry in the application's entry in the Windowsregistry.
Syntax
SaveSetting appname, section, key, setting
The SaveSetting statement syntax has thesenamed arguments:
Part Description
appname Required.String expression containing the name of the application orproject to which the setting applies.
section Required. String expression containing the name of the section where the key setting is being saved.
key Required. String expression containing the name of the key setting being saved.
setting Required.Expression containing the value that key is being set to.
Remarks
An error occurs if the key setting canât be saved for any reason.
GetSetting Function Example
This example first uses the SaveSetting statement to make entries in the Windows registry (or .ini file on 16-bit Windows platforms) for the application specified as appname, and then uses the GetSetting function to display one of the settings. Because the default argument is specified, some value is guaranteed to be returned. Note that section names can't be retrieved with GetSetting. Finally, the DeleteSetting statement removes all the application's entries.
' Variant to hold 2-dimensional array returned by GetSetting.
Dim MySettings As Variant
' Place some settings in the registry.
SaveSetting "MyApp","Startup", "Top", 75
SaveSetting "MyApp","Startup", "Left", 50
Debug.Print GetSetting(appname := "MyApp", section := "Startup", _
key := "Left", default := "25")
DeleteSetting "MyApp", "Startup"
For an easy read you can also read: Managing Application Settings enter this in the help index.
