Sorry to bother you again
But when I try this code it gives me an error. Where's the error please ?
---
Sub test()
Dim readValue As String
readValue = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue _
("\Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Ctrl+Alt+Del Options\", "Remove Task Manager", Nothing)
MsgBox ("The value is " & readValue)
End Sub
I haven't written in BASIC for a long time, and never really bothered with it. C++ is more my kind of thing, and I've only recently decided to start catching up on what I've forgotten.
The method (or function) doesn't supply a registry key, so it's probably not going to find anything. Furthermore, doesn't the last parameter require you to pass a object?
Thanks for you reply.
I am not used at working with registy keys. In previous replies to my thread I was referred to functions dealing with registry keys. But I was asking about local group policy. So I am a little bit confused since I am wondering if addressing those is really the same then addressing the registry keys.
You pass a string as the first argument; the name of the registry key which you wish to search for. Your searching for a folder path.
Have you checked Jacee's link?
