Hi there

I'm attempting to access the registry using the following:

Call SalUseRegistry(TRUE,
"\\\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\ODBC\\ODBC.INI" )
Call SalGetProfileString("", "Language", "", strTest2, "OMOAD")

but no luck!!!

I can access HKEY_CURRENT_USER fine, but I specifically need to access
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Oh yes, running Centura Version 1.5.1-PTF6 and Windows 2000 (Version
5.0)

Thanks
Krysia

Hy Krysia,

check out the centura newsgroup on news://talkto.centurasoft.com

you can only use the HKEY_CURRENT_USER with the centura standard functions.
If you want to got other keys try

Hallo Krysia,

sorry but with the function SalUseRegistry() you are not able to
access HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
If you want to read this part of registry you must use the windows API
functions. You can import these functions from a DLL or import these
function directly from windows API (e.g. look at MSDN topic registry
functions):
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...e_registry.asp
I don't know if there is a library for CTD that encapsulates these
function in classes or functions.
Hope it helps
