Just a few questions. I have PB 3.20 and in my help file there is no
listing for the registry commands, Do they work in PB 3.20 and if so
is there a seperate help file I need to download?

Thanks
Sean
P.S
Is there a PB e-mail program that can send attachments?

What Registry commands? There aren't any (native to PureBasic). Maybe you're
using a third-party library (Mr Skunks?) or something?

It's probably Mr. Skunk's 'Registry' library you've got, if i'm not remembering totaly wrong it was shipped with earlier versions of PureBasic and the update program hasn't removed it. You can remove it manually by just deleting the file "\PureLibraries\UserLibraries\Registry". There probably are some more old libraries by Mr. Skunk's that you can remove if you want...

BTW, check out the PureBasic resource site, there are some examples using win API and what-not to handle registry keys. Haven't checked the examples too closely but it's a start at least...

These are definitely Mr Skunk's library commands and they do not exist in the
default PureBasic installation. Remove the file Registry from your UserLibraries
folder, but if that's not there, then your PureBasic installation has become
corrupted somehow, and a reinstall is highly recommended.
