We are trying to programm Save and Retrieve Settings in the Windows Registry
with VB 2005, but it doesn't work. What is explained in Article ID : 145679
Last Review : July 15, 2004 Revision : 1.2 , works fine with VBA - Access
but not
with VB 2005. Can anybody give an input about the differences to apply for
these functions with VB 2005?

Friedi,

First of all you can ask VB.NET questions in:

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

You don't use API for the registry functions because you using the
'Microsoft.Win32' class. The article you are looking at is Pre .NET

Imports Microsoft.Win32

Dim reg As RegistryKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Key Here", True) '
Write Access... (False = read only)

....

Here's a KBase article:

I hope this helps,
