    Where can I find a result code descriptions corresponding to return values from registry api calls? A return of 0 is successful, but anything else means...???

    This lists all of WINERROR.H

    http://support.microsoft.com/support.../Q186/0/63.ASP

    Scroll down not quite halfway to the entry whose code is:

    -2147221168 (80040150)

    That's where the registry errors start.

    Perhaps I should not have said 'error codes'. The result codes I'm receiving if I cannot create a key or set a key's value is 2 or 6, etc. not quite the long error codes explained in winerror.h

    Damned if it doesn't do that, and I couldn't find anything anywhere (as you probably know already). It would appear all that's left is to force errors and see what comes back.
