Question : Moving Registry Entries Out of "VB and VBA Program Settings"

Hello,

I have an application that uses the "GetSetting" and "SaveSetting" commands to work with the registry.  These settings are automatically stored under "HKCU\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\".

However, I have added a setup project which creates the neccessary registry entries upon installation.  These are stored under "HKCU\Software\".

What's the best way to work with the registry in VS 2005 that lets you choose your registry location?

Thanks,
-Torrwin

Has a step by step tutorial on using registry in .net.

The preferred place to store settings in .net is the .config file.
