When I create my INI file, how would I be able to search for "02=Cat" and change Cat to a specific kind like "02=Maine Coon Cat"? Being able to change whatever would be in section [02=]

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

; -------- Create ini file -----------
FileWrite("Search.ini", _
        "[Search Animals]" & @CRLF & _
        "IGNORE_ERRORS=0" & @CRLF & _
        "01=Dog" & @CRLF & _
        "02=Cat" & @CRLF & _
        "03=Bird" & @CRLF & _
        "04=Fish")
Sleep(1000)
; ------ End of Create ini file ------

_read()

FileDelete("Search.ini") ; Tidy up


Func _read()
    Local Const $hostfile = "Search.ini"
    $var = IniReadSection($hostfile, "Search Animals")
    If @error Then
        MsgBox(4096, "Error", "Unable to read section.")
    Else
        For $number = 1 To $var[0][0]
            ; MsgBox(4096, "", "Key: " & $var[$i][0] & @CRLF & "Value: " & $var[$number][1])
            If $var[$number][1] == "Cat" Then
                MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Search", "The " & $var[$number][1] & " was found at " & $var[$number][0], 5)
                ExitLoop ; Exits For - Next loop (stops) when search value, "Cat", is found?
            EndIf
        Next
    EndIf
    _ArrayDisplay($var, "Search Animals")
EndFunc   ;==>_read

IniReadSectionNames will give you all sections of an ini file

IniReadSection will give you all keys of an ini section.

You just need to loop thru those 2 arrays and find the one you are looking for.

Thanks for the reply! Figured it out. An IniWrite is able to change the value directly

IniWrite("Search.ini", "Search Animals", "02", "Maine Coon Cat")
