OK, new registry questionI don't think I can do what I wanted initially, setting a registry keys
permissions via code and grant user permission. So, can anyone tell me, is there a place in the registry where people logged in as a limited user can read and write to with out any need to alter the key's security or elevate the users privilages? Austin,
I am curious why the all_users HKEY_Users not that what you are searching for? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310595 Cor Show quoteHide quote "Austin Myers" <aust***@grm.net> schreef in bericht news:OBMmAjryGHA.3512@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >I don't think I can do what I wanted initially, setting a registry keys >permissions via code and grant user permission.

I thnk at least half the problem is my lack of understanding the registry. Can you point me to a good link that explains it a bit more?

*sigh* This is one of the worst sins a programmer can commit.. Trying to use something they don't understand. Why are you trying to manipulate the registry if you dont understand it? That makes absolutely no sense. That's like me saying, huh, I'm going to rollerblade to work because I heard contraptions with wheels convey people faster. Research will make you competent. Guessing will make you a laughingstock, or worse, unemployed. -Boo Show quoteHide quote > Cor, > > I thnk at least half the problem is my lack of understanding the > registry.

As indicated, I've used it extensively with VB, however there are a TON of new issues when doing it in .NET. Again, I suppose I should try to learn it all without writing a line of code according to you? That makes absolutely no sense. Maybe to you it doesn't and I invite you to ignore my posts in the future. > Research will make you competent. Yes, hence my use of the news groups to put me on the right track. Of course if that bothers you see my invitation above. Guessing will make you a laughingstock, or worse, unemployed. Not when I own the company, count on it. <g> Cor,
I think I found the needed documentation. Thanks for all the help.

Did you look at that link about the Registry Class that I have showed showed somewhere in a reply to you , beside that it shows things about the registry does it as well show how easy the Registry is to handle in Net. You can reach the real registry without an API, while in VB classic you could than only use a kind of special main key of the registry, that is probably why you never have looked at it.

changing registry permissions... but my question is why arnt you wiriting registry stuff to current user? which is the only think a limited user really has write access to Show quoteHide quote "Austin Myers" <aust***@grm.net> wrote in message news:OBMmAjryGHA.3512@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >I don't think I can do what I wanted initially, setting a registry keys >permissions via code and grant user permission.
