How to read Strings (REG_SZ) from Registry?
Hi...
I already found out, how to write a String or better spoken,
a pChar to the WinRegistry (win95). But how life is...I'm unable to read it back later... And if you are already there, how does that work with numeric/binary types ? Like I said, all I can do yet, is to create my own Keys and set REG_SZ - Values. It also seems, there are some Keywords, like "DefaultIcon", "ShellNew", etc. could u tell me what keyword does what job ?
Thanx, :)
