Hello,
I'm having problems with the registry.. and the Win32 API Reference isn't exactly clear. :confused:
Say I wanted to greet the user by the name stored in the registry, located at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion
The data value that I want to read is "RegisteredOwner" - after this I would simply display a message box.
Also, how can I set a value in the registry? I can use RegSetValue but that only stores data in the registry as the "default" data value - perhaps I want to store a value in the registry under a certain key with the string value name of "User".. To put this in more simple terms, I wish to achieve the same effect as the following ".key" file:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MySoftware]
"UserName"="Bill Gates"
"RegistrationKey"="G45-46346-DF345"
Any tutorials or replies helping with this problem would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks. :)
