RegOpenKey not working

I always get this error:

RegOpenKeyEx failed with error code : 2

Please can some one explain why this is happening i am using an admin account

Code:

---

fResult = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, _
                KeyName, 0, _
                READ_CONTROL Or WRITE_DAC, hkey)
    If fResult <> ERROR_SUCCESS Then
        MsgBox "RegOpenKeyEx failed with error code : " & fResult
    Else
        UpdatePermissionsOfRegistryKey hkey, Accounts
        RegCloseKey hkey

---

RegOpenKeyEx HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "YourSubkey", 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, Result

The Result and Hkey are reversed in your code.
It returns the Hkey and delivers a Result in an argument.

thanks,

Does anybody know how to fix it, it sets permissions on the reg keys

Did you reverse Result and Hkey in your code?

@ chris1990. Your code is correct for what you are trying to achieve. The error code 2 is telling you (most likely) that the subkey doesn't exist. Do a Debug.Print on "KeyName" and check that it already exists in the registry to make sure it's valid.
