So I am digging around deep in the registry So far so good, but I need to access specifics for each subkey

	for (i=0; i<cSubKeys; i++)  { 
		cbName = MAX\_KEY\_LENGTH;
		retCode = RegEnumKeyEx(hKey, i,	achKey, &cbName, 0, 0, 0, &ftLastWriteTime); 
		if (retCode == ERROR\_SUCCESS) {
			RegQueryValueEx(hKey,L"DisplayName",NULL,NULL,(LPBYTE) lpData, &buffersize);
			applist.push\_back(lpData);
		}
	}

Anyway all I get are a bunch of "-" so am I getting the right type etc?

What are the types of lpData and applist?

I added another layer of hKey lpData is char* applist is CString I got it figured out with a lot more code needed

Are you sure that lpData is big enough to hold the returned value? What is the value of buffersize when you call the query function? Also, I do not see a push_back() method for either CString or CStringT classes; are you sure this is what you mean?

I'm guessing both lpData as applist need to be wide (unicode). You are using the wide version of RegQueryValueEx so for string values you are (I think) returned the unicode/wide version.
