Steve,

Are you talking about the class in the FFC. If so, here's what you do:

#DEFINE HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -2147483646
SET CLASSLIB TO registry.vcx
oReg = CREATEOBJECT('registry')
? oReg.Openkey('software\clients\mail', HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, .f.)
lcvalue = SPACE(260)
? oReg.Getkeyvalue("", @lcvalue)
? lcvalue
? oReg.Closekey()
