File I/O And Registry :: XML Read/Write
Apr 28, 2012I was unable to find anything in my searches for XML or INI on the forum so i apologize now if this has already been asked and answered before.
I have been searching Google for days now, trying to find information on Reading and Writing XML files. I wish to use them to replace INI files in my programs.
I have been using VB6 for years now, but was able to get a copy of VB.NET 2003 really cheap and so i am trying to learn how to do the things i did in VB6 in VB.NET 2003.
I was able to find code to write to an INI file, but was not able to successfully read from an INI file with any of the code i found.
I have been able to find code to write an XML file, but when i try to update it, it replaces the old file with a new one, and the old settings are missing, instead of the new settings added to it.
i can at least start migrating to VB.NET 2003, or if you read XML and update XML data, i can switch now. Here is the code i have for writing XML.[code...]

Now we moved to Windows 7 and it is not possible to write to the keys. First I need to go to the registry and add permissions. Then it works !

VS 2010 Wrong Write To Registry In Windows 7 64-Bit?
Mar 10, 2012my code is as below.
vb
Dim RegKey As RegistryKey = Registry.LocalMachine RegKey = RegKey.OpenSubKey("SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUIBackground", True) RegKey.SetValue("OEMBackground", "00000000") RegKey.Close()
If I output the contents of it on a msgbox, things are fine, but when I go to regedit, the change doesn't happen where it should as it actually happens in another registry key located at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAuthenticationLogonUIBac
k ground which I guess happens since I am on windows 7 64 bit, but I don't want that to happen as doing that doesn't change anything. The key I'm trying to change makes changing the default logon screen possible in Win7, but it's not working like this since the wrong key is being modified.

View 1 RepliesVS 2005 Retrieve "Last Write Time" Of A Registry Subkey
Apr 10, 2009EDIT: See thread at [URL] I've had a look around and I can't quite make sense of trying to get the last write time of a registry key in vb.net. Im a bit of a beginner in vb.net but I really have done an exhaustive search and cant find anything I can make any sense of. I can open subkeys and get values using .GetValue("ValueName"), but as last write time isnt a value inside the key, this doesn't here.
I have had a look around and it seems in VB6 RegOpenKeyEx was used (to open the key and get a handle), then RegQueryInfoKey was used to get the last write time (of the subkey via its handle) BUT i cant get this to work. I have tried entering the following
