Reading and Comparing REG_BINARY

I am currently programming a Tweak Tool, and am having some difficulty regarding registry entries in the REG_BINARY format. I know how to write this type of value to the registry, however what I am wanting to do, is read the exisiting value, and depending on the value that is set, change the index of a combobox.

Thanks in advance.

    Andy,

    I wonder what registry reading routines you are using

    I've never had any difficulty with this.

    Hi sorry bout long reply time, I am still having the same troubles as before, I need to create the value 0e 00 10 01 as a REG_BINARY in the Windows Registry, however, when typing this into the RegistryValueKind enumeration, it says something about the letter not being a valid entry, and I have the feeling that perhaps I need to convert it to hex and enter it that way. If so is there any easy way to do this, or a free class out there somewere.
