Hi,

I am trying to read/write registry-values and am having probs:

First of all, I create an object for the desired key. This happens within a TRAP for Value Error which comes up when the specificed key does not exist.


So, in order to write a value, I then do:

And the result is:

EXCEPTION: In den Registrierungsschlüssel kann nicht geschrieben werden.

(= cannot write into this registry-key)

What's going on? According to the doc, the key should be opened for writing, so why can't I then write? Do I need to do anything more?

Thanks

Michael
