I need to know the name of a section, having the section_index or section_text.

I've look in the documentation but a function like 'SectionGetName section_index user_var(output)' doesn't exist.

Does it exist a way to do waht I want?

What do you mean by section name? There is only the text and the index. If you mean the 2nd parameter, i.e. Section "My section" SecId, then SecId is just a constant containing the section index at compile time.
It's the same as doing !define SecId #.

Um, sorry, yes I mean the SecId. I'm using the 'Memento.nsh' header file (and I'm a little confused), that writes each entry section in the registry in this way 'MementoSection_SecId'.

In my installer I have one '.onSelChange' method, and I need to recover in it the SecId of the checbox that was checked/unchecked, in order to read the corresponding 'MementoSection_SecId' (I want to make something like a three states checkboxes in running time just for your information).

They should have done it 'MementoSection_#' instead. That would be more helpful. You'll just have to put an ${If} in there for each section index to read from the corresponding identifier.

Ok, thanks for your help, I think using the SecId to write in the registry is not the better way too, I'll try to make that you say or make a custom Memento.nsh.
