How can i enumerate all subfolders of a folder in registry in TreeView.

Hi.

The title is self-explanatory.

I need to list in a treeview the subfolders (not the subfolders of the subfolders (Depth=1)) of a path in registry.

Example : ( List SubFolders of HKEY_USERS\Default )
------------------------------------------
HKEY Users
|->Default
|-> AppEvents
|-> Console
|-> Control Panel
|-> EHelp
|-> Environment

------------------------------------------

Thanks in advance :)

Thanks :) ... both

Well if itsnt too much to ask do you know how can i filter those subfolders and list only those...
if they contain a subfolder named "2" ?

After retrieving the list to stringlist you can simply check / search into it.
e..g
s.IndexOf('2'); // will return the index if found -1 otherwise.

OR

var
Reg : TRegistry;
begin
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
Reg.RootKey := HKEY_USERS;
Reg.OpenKey('.DEFAULT', False);
if Reg.KeyExists('2') then
ShowMesasage('The key exists');
Reg.Free;
end;
