Hi, at the top of your class

Imports Microsoft.Win32

'then

Dim oRegKey As RegistryKey
Dim oBaseKey As RegistryKey

oBaseKey = Registry.CurrentUser
oRegKey = oBaseKey.OpenSubKey("Software\YourProgram")

If not oRegKey Is Nothing Then
Dim val As Object = oRegKey.GetValue("ValueName")
key.Close
End If

Hope this helps

Check out the 'Microsoft.Win32.Registry' class (no additional references
required).
