read/write registry -

Hello. After some search here in vbforum, I decided to use the file "Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Template\Code\Registry Access.bas" to read and write values from/to registry.

But I just can't find any simple example for it.
So, I want t read a value from "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup\header"

I've done this:

Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim chaveRoot As String, ChaveNome As String
Dim chave As String
Dim x As Variant


chave = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup\header"

chaveRoot = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER"
ChaveNome = "Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup\header"

x = AcessoReg.GetKeyValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, ChaveNome, "")

MsgBox x
End Sub

I'm not getting any value from this key.
What am I missing?

Thank you
