Registry GetValue

[JBaileys]

What is the best method to retrieve a value from the registry?

RegistryKey key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\\Folder\\etc");
strDBName = key.GetValue("DBName");
key.Close();

const string SUBKEYBASE = "Software\\Company\\etc";
const string DBSERVER = "DBServer";


// get some registry keys for the sql server connection

RegistryKey regKey;
regKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey ( SUBKEYBASE, false );
strDBServer = regKey.GetValue ( DBSERVER, "Application\\Key" ).ToString ();
regKey.Close ();
