Value of a registry key?

[robdunfey]

How is best to get the value of a registry key? Is there a difference in approach in VB6 and VB.NET, is there any approach that is common to both languages?

Any guidance much appreciated -

Rob

I use the RegOpenKeyEx & RegQueryValueEx API calls. Not sure about .NET.

A good general resource for API calls (with source code samples in VB):
