Dear all,

I have a smal problem and I do not understand why.

 put queryRegistry("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TEST\Path") into tPath

is working in livecode without any problems. But if I start the standalone application it is not working. Error: Bad Key.

The think is I can start the registry editor and I can the the value (with the same User). But why?

Thanks
Stef

OK, problem was found......

....32/64 bit architecture is the magic word... A 32bit application is not able to access the 64bit registry on a windows system
