Api functions with VB 2005

[Guest]

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?
Thanks --

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,
