https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Fortran-Compiler/RegSetValue-Question/m-p/845227#M63196 in using RegSetValueEx, the lpData (ptr to value-data) is quoted as a "buffer" I cannot figure this out. If the value-data is a string, then a null terminated string will do and the length is simply the length of the string.<BR /><BR />But what should one use for things like DWORD?<BR />will lpData be loc(an integer(4))?<BR />and will cbData =4 ?<BR /><BR />Thanks in adv,<BR /> TimH Fri, 03 May 2002 05:05:53 GMT rahzan 2002-05-03T05:05:53Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Fortran-Compiler/RegSetValue-Question/m-p/845227#M63196 in using RegSetValueEx, the lpData (ptr to value-data) is quoted as a "buffer" I cannot figure this out.
