My mistake.  RegOpenKeyEx() and RegSaveKey() do not fill in
GetLastError() at all.  The return value is the actual error code
instead:

    HKEY hKey;
    LONG lResult;
    DWORD dwErr;

    lResult = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
"Software\\XXXCompany\\Settings\\ViewForms", 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS,
&hKey);
    if( lResult == ERROR_SUCCESS )
    {
        lResult = RegSaveKey(hKey, "tempReg", NULL);
        if( lResult != ERROR_SUCCESS )
            Application->MessageBox(("save key error: " +
AnsiString(lResult)).c_str(), NULL, MB_OK);
        RegCloseKey(hKey);
    }
    else
        Application->MessageBox(("open key error: " +
AnsiString(lResult)).c_str(), NULL, MB_OK);
