i dont have a problem with saving, but how can i load these same values so next time when the user openes the program he'll find his same values that were saved last time.
i'm using these methods on a Settings menu which consist of radio buttons for resolution, display mode, texture and sound. i gave every set a value, e.g resolution 640x480 = 0 ,resolution 800x600 = 1 etc.
i just need the info on how to load these same values to the user.

You didn't really explain your problem, you just said your code wasn't working. It looks fine to me, apart from you should have a line checking if the file exists, so that you can delete it and save it, or else db will come up with an error message saying the file exists. You should also check if it exists before the loading, or else you will be trying to load a non existant file.

Here is a small demo on how to use these commands (source box)...
