Accessing the Registry
Darren Harvey
I am looking for a way to access information for a Registry Key, without the use of a Bat file or writing the results to a text file. I want to do this in an eClient situation, and I would prefer not to have to rely on writing/reading files from the client PC. My thought is to use the ‘REG QUERY …’ command, but not sure this is possible without reading or writing files.
Thanks
Darren

Hi Darren,
You could try to use the Win32 API functions (from advapi32.dll) as 3GL procedures e.g.:
RegOpenKeyEx (RegOpenKeyExA), RegQueryValueEx (RegQueryValueExA) and RegCloseKey

Alternatively, you could use the undocumented RegistryKey class
(have a look at the sources of “asreg” application in the Empire 4GL sources – asreg is accessing the registry using this class).

Darren,
I have used some registry access functionality in an eClient application to determine the location of the installed Office (Word, Excel) executables. The basic functionality was provided by someone else on this group. If you would lie a copy of the userclass and sample calls, I can provide it for you. This has been written for OpenROAD 2006 (5.0)
Regards,
Martin Bloomfield.
