Basically, I'd like to record in one of the form's properties a value that is selected by the user and not having to record that in a table, but in the actual form's table (this is at runtime). I know the property must be initialized, so the idea is, in the next session the user will have as default value what was selected in a previous session.

Nigel,

I've never done API calls to the registry to write a value, but the idea really intrigues me. Do you have any samples that I could take a look at or pointers to sites that have them?. The registry is one of those mysterious "I-don't-want-to-mess-with-it-because-Microsoft-does" kind of areas, but I'll definitely want to give a try.


Merry Christmas,


Gil
