Checking if registry value exists

Hi everyone.

Sorry if this is the wrong group for this question, but since it
is .NET and VB, I thought someone may be able to help me here or point
me to the right group for this.

I am working on an application which needs to check if a certain VALUE
exists in a registry subkey. Is there an easy way to do this? So far,
my googles have come up empty on this, though they DO have a plethora
of information on checking if a KEY exists.

Any help on this is much appreciated.

Thank you,
Ryan
