In using a program, freeCommander, it initializes with an ini file. I want to take 3 sections out for my customized tools, and have the oem.ini file read these values from the attached custom ini,

This is make it easier to update and export to other sessions of the program

in a batch file I could just: Call custom ini

One of the sections enumerates the tools, as individual sections, of which I have about 30

Solution 1

As you are suggesting batch files, I assume this is what you're comfortable with.
So in a batch file you could write

copy IniFile1.ini + IniFile2.ini + IniFile3.ini FreeCommander.ini

This will append the 3 ini files together and save it as FreeCommander.ini

You cannot "call" INI file because this is not code and not a function, method or procedure.
