(RESOLVED) Registry problem (simple)

[darre1]

ok, i've done this plenty of times before, but i'm currently having a brain hemerage and can't figure it out.

Private Sub Form_Activate()
    Dim lngHKey As Long
    Dim strData As String
    Dim lngLenData As Long
        
    If RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", _
        0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, lngHKey) Then
        MsgBox "Couldn't open key!", vbCritical, "Error"
        Unload Me
    End If
    
    If RegQueryValueEx(lngHKey, "ProductKey", 0, REG_SZ, strData, 29) Then
        MsgBox "Couldn't retrieve Windows 98 product key!", vbCritical, "Error!"
        RegCloseKey lngHKey
        Unload Me
    End If
    RegCloseKey lngHKey
    
    lblProductKey.Caption = strData
End Sub

strData is returning ""....

cheers guys

sokay sorted it, changed 29 to 30 to include the Null terminator at the end of the string.
