Yes I tried this too, but you can't access anything outside the VB Registry and the User Restry. How do you access things in the Root or under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE

? ? ?

You need to use Windows API (see http://www.developerfusion.com/show/1857/)

How do you stope the pause after a keypress? For Example, if you have a game where the arrow key's are used and the player is walking by holding down the arrow key, the player will walk a step, pause then continue walkking.

You can test this by opening note pad and hit any key and hold down... notice the pause that occurs be for the key is repeated:

a aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 ^-Simulated pause

Thanks in advance for any leads!

This isn't quite the best place for your question. Anyway, I would do it like this:
On keydown, set movement to Up.
On keyup, set movement to None.
Then when you press the key, the player moves up, and when you release it they stop. The repeat won't have any effect.

this will create a key under hkey_local_machine\software
named MyFirstKey
and under that key it will set the default subkey to equal c:\progran files\my
and create another key called Example with the value of 1

 'Get RegEdit.Server object
 Set S = CreateObject("RegEdit.Server")
 
 'Get a key
 Set Key = S.GetKey("HKLM\SOFTWARE")
 
 'Add a new key
 Set MyKey = Key.CreateKey("MyFirstKey")
 'or Set MyKey = Key.SubKeys.Add("MyFirstKey")
 
 'Set String and DWORD values
 MyKey.Values("") = "C:\Program Files\My"


 S.GetKey("HKLM\SOFTWARE\MYFIRSTKEY").Values("Example")="1"

Does anyone know how to set a Dword value in the registry??

 Hope this helps
