Response to: Missing constants?
This appears to work. Change these constants to the following values: Public Const KEY_READ = &H20019 Public Const KEY_WRITE = &H20006 Public Const KEY_ALL_ACCESS = &HF003F The FileTime type was also not discussed. This is used in the RegQueryInfoKey and RegEnumKeyEx functions. It can be declared with: Public Type FILETIME dwLowDateTime As Long dwHighDateTime As Long End Type Finally, the RegCloseKey function is mentioned, but not defined. It is: Declare Function RegCloseKey Lib "advapi32.dll" (ByVal hKey As Long) As Long This and much more can be found on this API Guide site, http://www.mangovision.com/vbapi/

  Here's the constant declaration that was inteded to be used:
  
  Const STANDARD_RIGHTS_ALL = &H1F0000
  Const STANDARD_RIGHTS_READ = &H20000
  Const STANDARD_RIGHTS_WRITE = &H20000
