RegSetValue Question

[rahzan]

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.

But what should one use for things like DWORD?
will lpData be loc(an integer(4))?
and will cbData =4 ?

Thanks in adv,

That way will work but A more proper way maybe to declare

integer(DWORD) ivalue

then ivalue can be assigned or read from say a reg fragment in decimal or hex (Z format) form.

then pass loc(ivalue) and valLength=4
