Accessing the Windows Registry on the Client Machine

A set of library routines lets you access and modify the Windows registry on the client machine. The names of the routines all begin with "DISPLAY" to distinguish them from similar routines that operate on the server's registry if the server is Windows. For example, you use DISPLAY_REG_CREATE_KEY or DISPLAY_REG_CREATE_KEY_EX to create a new registry key on the display host. Note that user authorization is required to change the registry with any of the following routines:

You authorize or cancel an operation in an authorization dialog.

See Routines to Handle the Windows Registry in ACUCOBOL-GT Appendices for a description of all the DISPLAY Windows registry library routines.
