Viewing Old Registry File

I am trying to view a registry file from my old computer on my new computer. Specifically, I am trying to get a registry key from Dreamweaver.

I tried regedit on the old file, but this seems to want to load all the old keys into my current registry file.

I guess what I need is a simple registry viewer, something that will show me the content of the old registry file without actually loading them into my current computer.

Any ideas?

Are you trying to view the whole hive or just a .reg file?

I did not do an export, so I do not think I have a .reg file. What I do have is a file called Software in system32/config folder.

The program DoTheDEW335 gave is great.

I have one followup question, I am trying to get to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Macromedia\Common\2004\Sites but via my system32/config folder I can seem to find this. I think I am just looking in the wrong place.

Is this not in the Software file?

Nevermind, I found it. It was in

Documents and Settings\<user name>\Ntuser.dat

I would imagine keys, etc would be under hkey_local_)machine and not hkey_current_user
