vuEZRegPut(ByUser, KeyName, KeyValue)

vuEZRegPut(LONG,*CSTRING,*CSTRING), Signed

Description

Saves a value in the Windows registry without requiring knowledge of the registry key structure. The function automatically creates the required key and subkeys. Keys are stored under:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\vuPrograms\<Your Program Name>\KeyName if ByUser = 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\vuPrograms\<Your Program Name>\KeyName if ByUser = 0

This allows each application to store values independently without overwriting each other.

Parameters

Parameter	Data Type	Description
ByUser	LONG	0 = Store value with the PC (all users) 1 = Store value with the current logged-in user
KeyName	CSTRING(128)	Alphanumeric key name to store the value under
KeyValue	CSTRING(128)	The data value to store

Returns

1 (True) on success, 0 (False) on failure.

Example

! Example: Store a registration code for application "Trivette"
KeyName  = 'Registration Code'
KeyValue = '07 0F CB 4A 9D'

IF vuEZRegPut(0, KeyName, KeyValue) = 1
  MESSAGE('Registration saved successfully.')
END

Notes

Works together with vuEZRegGet to retrieve stored values.
Each program name is embedded in the registry path, so keys with the same KeyName will not conflict between applications.
Not a general-purpose registry API only designed for saving and retrieving simple values.
