I am the administrator user in windows XP SP1. I have opened regedt32.exe
and I have all the permissions. I can delete, write, change, etc manually in
the registry. Then, I have done a test. I have wrotten a new key in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run with name
Hello and value nothing.
So, I have changed my code and it doesn�t work again. I am using BCB 5. This
is my code:

int result;
        TRegistry *registry = new TRegistry();
        registry->RootKey = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE;

if(!registry->DeleteKey("\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run
\\Hello"))
                result = GetLastError();
        delete registry;

I think the problem is in DeleteKey. I might have to open the key and then
just delete it, or I dont�t know, to do something different. Any idea? Ah,
a last thing, the type of the key is REG_SZ. Is this important?

Thank you for your help.
