Dim regKey As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKeyregKey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", True)

I'm running Windows Vista with admin privilege and UAC is disabled but still unable to write to windows registry!
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue _
("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun", _
"Test", "C:Test.exe", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.String)
I'm getting error "Unauthorized Access Exception was unhandled."
"Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE....' is denied."
I've googled the net and found that registry permission elevation is required for admin tasks, Is there away to take registry key ownership through VB.Net code??

I just bet the answer to this question already exists, however I saw no search mechanism under the forum. Anyhow, I would like to change registry data, and this code is asking for an instance to the object.
Dim RegKey As RegistryKey = My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwa reAnyDWGSoftwareDWGtoPDFProSettings", True)
RegKey.SetValue("OutputPDFFileOpt", 1)
Finally, I want to apply this setting to the program on four different computers (local, and three others on the network).

I need to read a value (and possibly adjust the value) in HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall key on both 32 and 64 bit systems.I've tried accessing 'stuff' by compiling my widget as both a 32 and 64 bit app, but nothing is working. Then I came across some information indicating that this could be done from a 32 bit applicaiton using KEY_WOW64_64KEY [URL] somehow, but I can't figure it out.
1) Check the existing value of HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall{ProductGUID}DisplayVersion handling both architectures.
2) If the value <> "" And <> Our Current Version Then
3) Write the Current Version to the value mentioned in step 1.
I wouldn't think this is that difficult as I've worked with registry before, but the 64 bit stuff is throwing me for a loop.It would be nice if I could compile my app to target AnyCPU then detect where its running on 32 or 64 bit. The app could then look and update in the appropriate location.I currently am set to use .NET 2.0, but could go to 4.0 if there is something in there that makes the above tasks easier.

I have looked through more old threads than I can count and I just cannot get any of the suggestions to work. I did a little poking around MSDN as well. I am trying to use the registry to enable AutoLogon on a Win7 machine through code. I can read the current value with no problem but I am running into security problems when I attempt to change AutoLogon to "1". This is what I have done so far.

I am having problems with opening a file and writing in a new line some data.Instead of writing the data in a new line,it replaces the data in the first line of the file with the new data.The function is this:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdAdd.Click
ListBox1.Items.Add(txtServerName.Text)

My application needs to change the default signature of outlook and I need to change the value of a registry key for this. But I get a error that I probaly don't have enough permissions. Strange thing is, if I change it manually it doesn't complain.
Error:System.UnauthorizedAccessException : Cannot write to the registry key.
Happens at the 2nd line:
vb
Dim subkey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("SoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows Messaging SubsystemProfilesOutlook9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676�0000002") subkey.SetValue("New Signature", Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes("Eigen"), Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.Binary)

My application uses structures that contain strings and arrays that I want to write to disk. I understand that I can create the fixed length data types in the structures by using "ReDim" and "String$", but my question is: Does VB reallocate the storage for the structure which includes these redimensioned members in-line (which would be necessary in order to write the contents to disk), or does it allocate heap and merely store a pointer in the structure?If only a pointer is provided, is there a straightforward workaround to allow me to create fixed length data types in a structure that could be written to a disk file?Or, Is there an I/O method that will handle the situation by recreating a contiguous buffer containing the structure before writing it to disk?

I am basically reading a text file with info like this:
"S1($=""ChW System Pressure"",V=134.00,%=""Pa""),S2($=""UPS_Batt Rm 1to4 Circ A Flow "",V=9.17,%=""DegC""),S3($=""UPS_Battery Rm Sec ChW Rtn"",V=-38.38,%=""DegC""),S4($=""Buffer Vessel BV-02 High Temp"",V=9.08,%=""DegC""),...
And I'm trying to write a program that read the data, filters the sections so that per line it does the bit before the brackets i.e. "S1" then a comma then the sections inside the brackets as comma separated values removing the double quotes and symbols I don't want etc. Basically dividing the separate S*'s onto different lines and separating the values with comma's. There are also other points which are a different letter than "'S" and the same to do with them to.

I want to write a generic file saving routine where the routine is passed data in the form of a collection and it sets a containsStructure flag. I wanted to be able to save the data from the collection, but if it is a collection of structures I want to be able to extract the data from the structure to write to the file.
The only trouble is, that I cannot do something like:
For Each s As dataStructure In data
Next
Since the compiler complains that dataStructure is not defined. Is there a way to code around this?

I've been doing a self studies on visual basic and I thought I've learned a lot but still I realized that I still have something more to learn. I want to learn the basic fundamentals on SQL for its database operations such as adding,editing, and deleting records. I would say I'm new to SQL because as far as I've used VB, I've been using LINQ(Language Integrated Queries) for database operation. I've been doing a lot of research online on how to start and connect to SQL but I find hard to make it on my own cause all I've got is an error during runtime.
