can't delete registry key in win nt 4

[fenris]

Private Declare Function SHDeleteKey Lib "Shlwapi" Alias "SHDeleteKeyA" ( _
ByVal hKey As Long, ByVal lpSubKey As String) As Long

hCurKey = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 'this is the hex value: &H80000002

strLastKey ="SOFTWARE\myCompany\MyProgram\MRU\file1"


if SHDeleteKey(hCurKey, strLastKey) <> 0 then
msgbox &quot;Delete of Registry Key Failed!&quot;
endif

'=====================
SHDeleteKey returns a 2. I can manually delete the key using regedit. Any ideas.

RegDeleteKey also does the same thing.....
