hi
i want to know "static public string GetStringRegistryValue(string key, string defaultValue)
{
RegistryKey rkCompany;
RegistryKey rkApplication;
rkCompany = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(SOFTWARE_KEY, false).OpenSubKey(COMPANY_NAME, false);
if( rkCompany != null )
{
rkApplication = rkCompany.OpenSubKey(APPLICATION_NAME, true);
if( rkApplication != null )
{
foreach(string sKey in rkApplication.GetValueNames())
{
if( sKey == key )
{
return (string)rkApplication.GetValue(sKey);
}
}
}
}
return defaultValue;
}

will u explain what is rkcompany and rkapplication. i am new to dotnet.i have understood each and every piece of the program except this.

just enjoy while working with the new thougts and fresh ideas

Hey korupally

rkCompany and rkApplication are two local registry key variables which is defined by me.

And which takes value from the TWO CONTANTS COMPANY_NAME and APPLICATION_NAME
If you see the global constants of the page code you will see i have defined values for these two constants

So the reason for using these registry keys is to get and set the registry value for the product.

let me know if that answers your question

Hello sir,

First of all, i am very thankful to you for the reply given by you.My name is venkatreddy. Presently i am working in a very small company. I know dotnet for the last 6 months. I know all the basics but this program is a little complex for me. I have understood every part of the program except these getregistrykey value and setregistrykey value. I have understood the explaination given by you. But i have some more doubts please answer them. i am eagerly waiting for your reply sir.

My doubts are:

private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
strCulture = RegistryAccess.GetStringRegistryValue(@"Language","en-US");

Here your getting the value of strCulture from the registry for the default language english[I think so]. Here i think language is a key word understand by the registry and 'en-US' is the default language. I think that here we are getting the registry value for the particular language which we want to use in our application [like french,german etc.,] i think first we have to get that particular registry value from the registry and later we will use it in our application. To do this why u have declared the two global constants and why u have assigned the two values "Code project" and "Globalization sample".
[private const string COMPANY_NAME = "CODE PROJECT";
private const string APPLICATION_NAME = "GLOBALIZATION SAMPLE";]

and what is this 'Software Key'. Sir, Can u explain a little more about this please sir.

Sir, i am sincerely requesting you to answer my doubt.Please alot a very few minutes of your precious time.

Here i am eagerly waiting for your reply.

Thanking you sir.

This particular function is caled to find out whether the user has used earlier the application and set a default langaage for the application

RegistryAccess.GetStringRegistryValue(@"Language","en-US");

It will read the value from [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CODE PROJECT\GLOBALIZATION SAMPLE] in the registry run regedit to find this value
If the value [Language] is already there it wil take the value from there

OR

WHEN THE APPLICATION IS RUN THE FIRST TIME AND THERE IS NO VALUE FOR Laaguage in that registry key the last parameter [ "en-US"] in the function set
the value of [Language] to be "en-US" and create the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CODE PROJECT\GLOBALIZATION SAMPLE

Now you undersand we are saving the value of the DEFAULT LANGUAGE IN REGISTRY
where should we save it in a user created Registry key so that user created registry key is

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\COMPANY_NAME \ APPLICATION_NAME

whose value comes to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CODE PROJECT\GLOBALIZATION SAMPLE

if your company name is verizon inc and your product name in Invoice applicatin you can initialize them as verizon and verizoninvoice

and the Key created in registry will be

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Verizon\Verizon Invoice

HOPE this helps
