What I want to know is how to treat data of the type REG_EXPAND_SZ in the registry when reading it. THere are not tha many such but for completeness I want to be able to display these kinds of data too. And my code example in my previous post is not working, it contains a few obvious bugs like using a loop variable inside the loop as a new loop variable. But these are ironed out already so right now my main concerns is still the treatment of REG_EXPAND_SZ data... I googled and followed links into the Microsoft site where the format should be described but it was only in words and no exact spec that I could find.
