Loading ini file values -

I'm using the GetPrivateProfileString API function to read all the values stored in the app's ini file at program start. The way I do it is, I make repeated calls to GetPrivateProfileString and at each call one variable is read.

Everything works fine but then I thought, does it make any difference if I don't read the values in the same order as they appear in the file, i.e. am I slowing things down by reading a value at the end of the file, then another near the beginning and so on, leaping back and forth?

Is there a more efficient way to read all the file's values?
