Solve : Edit/change DWORD value in Registery with Visual Basic 5?

Answer»

Hi DEAR brothers!!!

The problem is that i want to CHANGE the DWORD value in the registery. i

can do it easily by mouse and keybord by going to registery clicking and

changing the value but i want to do i with visual basic 5

Suppose that

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSI

ON\RUN\ OPTIONAL COMPONENTS\IMAIL \ install DOWRD contian value 1 i

want to change it to 0 or may be it is in 0 so want to change in 1. so what

would be the source code of it

Reply requestedI thought we had solved this in a prior post.

The format of the RegWrite method is:

Code: [SELECT]object.RegWrite strName, varValue [,strType]

where object is the shell object and strType, THOUGH optional, is one of:

REG_SZ a string as string
REG_DWORD a double word as integer
REG_BINARY a binary word as integer
REG_EXPAND_SZ an expandable string as string

Code: [Select]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\RUN\OPTIONAL COMPONENTS\IMAIL, 1, "REG_DWORD"
Reference

I suggest you create your own private registry entries for testing or at least create a restore point. Messing with the registry can have nasty consequences.

Good luck.

It's not REQUIRED that you create a poll for each post, especially when all the options are identical.thank u side winder u r always the best coollllll
