That Screenshot is a picture of the vb api loader, yet I used it just to show people what my tutorial would be like, and what it would cover etc.

Great job!! One thing though...
how do I get it so that when i am opening a registry key the variable i get in return is:
Ex:
nBufferDATA = "shuttlepc(box, box) e(box)p(box)c(box)" followed by 238 spaces?
if you could help that would be very nice...

I get it even worse... I get the last few characters in the registry key spaced out between the blank spaces. When the variable is shown in a message box it appears correct, although when it is used for anything else it is displayed wrong.
Any help here would be much appreciated.

Thank you, very much! The mere function of retrieving the name had me set. I changed 8000002 to a 1 at the end (whatever the number was) to get to local user only, and retrieved proxy server information. I needed this as my program wouldn't connect if the network needed a proxy server. Much of the time was spent on the registry alone, now I have to work out the sockets, seeing if it can work without proxy (client checking stuff), etc.
Thanks again!
