access 64 bit registry from 32 bit app

[winman]

I have a 32 bit VB6 application which checks a registry path of a 64 bit application installed in a 64 bit machine.So if try to access HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE then it will be redirected to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node. So this problem is by nature of the windows registry that 32 bit application will be accessing wow6432node. So how can avoid redirecting to wow6432node and instead access HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE.
