Using Registry Editing Functions

Why Trust Us

Question:
How do I get VB to edit the registry inruntime?

Answer:
The easiest way, assuming you’re in VB 4.0 and using Win95, is to use the GetSetting and SaveSetting functions. They’re built into VB and automatically put a VB application’s settings into a particular area in the Registry…under Software/VB and VBA Applications, if I remmeber right. If you want to put them elsewhere, you have to look into the various APIs to do this. I’m guessing GetSetting and SaveSetting will be sufficient for you.
