I've checked the site above but i'm stuck again .. as i use the following code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
QueryValue "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\run\", "StringValue"
End Sub

The program will return an empty msgbox.

Thnax in advance,

The second argument to QueryValue function should be the name (technically speaking, the Value Name) of a Registry entry under the key. "StringValue" was just an example (like "YourNameHere&quot, so replace that literal with a variable that contains the Value Name that you are actually looking for.

But from your original posting, I gather that you won't know what Value Names might appear under that Registry key. So you FIRST (but after you have a handle to the Registry key) need to be using a different API function to get that information: RegEnumValue. That KnowledgeBase article mentions this function, but unfortunately does not describe it. You'll call that function repeatedly, getting one Value Name from each call, until you have retrieved them all. As you retrieve each Value Name, you can use the QueryValue function to retrieve the corresponding Value Data.

I will leave it to you to search for documentation on the RegEnumValue function. And if you need additional help on that function, you might want to post your question on the Visual Basic(Microsoft) Win32API forum.
