READ REGISTRY QUESTION RB 6 / 7

rbuser

Hello!
Is it possible in a simple manner to read in and print a string variable
from the registry in RB 6 or 7 ?

I am thinking of a situation where I f.i. want to read in and print the name
of the owner of my program.
This info may be located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MySoftWare\MyString.
I have been using QR and QRD earlier. There it was possible to read this ifo
by READREGISTRY('Software', 'MySoftware', 'MyString').

I have not found this possibility in RB. How could this be done?

Kind regards
TorB.

There is a system data pipeline that is included in the RBAddOn component
set that provides system information such as the current user name. For a
demo surf www.bancoems.com\RBAddOn.htm
