>I am setting some keys in an app and I have run into a bit of a bottleneck. I have a key with TWO values. The first is a string and the second is a binary value. I need to be able to set the binary value portion of the key and to date it has been a real party killer.

Actually, I have done the footwork and I have resolved the issue.

I am going to create an upload for the UT. But in the meantime here is the solution:

I had initialy used RegCreateKey, and RegSetKey but The multiple part key values were being a real pain in the 'tushka' I wound up using the 'Ex' keys almost exclusivly.

In my above values the correct way to describe what I wanted would have been like so:

Binary Data Name: "EnableAutoDisconnect" Binary Data Value: 00 00 00 00
The Code would look like this:

sDataName = "EnableAutoDisconnect"
sKeyName = "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"
sDataValue = &O0
lLen = Len(sDataValue)
ret& = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_USERS, sKeyName, 0, 0, lphKey&) 'lphKey is the keys handle
ret& = RegSetValueEx(lphKey&, sDataName, 0, REG_BIN, sDataValue, lLen) 'REG_BIN = 3 
ret& = RegFlushKey(lphKey&) ' Uncache the new data (Force immediate write)

To set a two-part string key use RegSetValueExString() otherwise you might need some asprin sooner than you like. :) I am currently working on the retrieval of the keys' information to be used in the app. When this is done I will release everything to the thread. :)
