writing/reading to the Windows Registry

Geoff

Does any body know if it's possible to write and read values from the windows registry? It would be a handy place to store setting values for a skill program.

  • Thanks Evan. I'll have to try some of those things out when I have time. Unfortunately I am super busy laying out boards.

    The way I do it now: when a skill program closes, the current settings are stored in a file on disk, so that next time the program is used it loads those stored settings. I think storing it in the registy is cleaner because you don't need a file on disk. I have done it in Visual Basic, and I like it.
