    Working with Windows Registry using Visual Basic 6 - A complete Tutorial

    Brief description: There are plenty of threads scattered in vbforums which tell you how to interact with the registry but none of them are commented thoroughly so that a new user could understand them... I have tried to summarize here with snapshots all that you can do with the Windows registry... BTW I have tried this with Windows XP SP3 and VB 6.0

    Caution: Before you begin with this tutorial, The very first step that you should learn is how to back up windows registry. Please see the section "Backing up the Windows Registry" below.

    Topics
    1. Backing up the Windows Registry
    2. Writing to The Windows Registry
    3. Reading from The Windows Registry
    4. Deleting entries in The Windows Registry
    5. GetAllSettings
    6. Checking if a key created by SaveSetting exists using vb 6.0 code
    7. Writing to any portion of the registry for which you have permissions <A bit more advanced>
    8. Find keys in the Windows Registry... with an Project Example
    9. Other API References
    10. Summary
