Afternoon All,

Has anyone retrieved values from the registry? If so how?

Thanks for the help.

Michael,

Set up the following External Functions for te advapi32 library:

a) cnEcRegCloseKey(hKey : Integer) : Integer is RegCloseKey in advapi32;

b) cnEcRegOpenKeyA(hKey:Integer; sKey:String[256]; result:Integer output):Integer is RegOpenKeyA in advapi32;

c) cnEcRegOpenKeyW(hKey:Integer; sKey:String[256]; result:Integer output):Integer is RegOpenKeyW in advapi32;

d) cnEcRegQueryValueExA(hKey:Integer; sKey:String[256] io; reserved:Integer; type:Integer; data:Binary[256] io; length:Integer io):Integer is RegQueryValueExA in advapi32;

e) cnEcWinRegQueryValueExW(hKey:Integer; sKey:String[256] io; reserved:Integer; type:Integer; data:Binary[256] io; length:Integer io):Integer is RegQueryValueExW in advapi32;

Once you've done this, take a look at the attached method to see how they're used.
