Need help with syntax - firefly 2.0

[Patrick Harvey]

Can someone please tell me why I get an error 516 when I compile this (inside a button click function)....

Dim a As Dword                                  
Let a=FF_GetRegistryDWord %hkey_current_user, "Control Panel\Desktop", "foregroundlocktimeout", 11

I have been trying for a week to read this registry value and cannot get this to work.  

Thanks

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

I emailed you a couple of days about this with the suggestion to wrap the function in parenthesis. Try this:

Code Select Expand


a=FF_GetRegistryDWord( %hkey_current_user, "Control Panel\Desktop", "foregroundlocktimeout", 11)

hmmm.... right you are. Maybe I have the old version of the wrapper file in the last release. Arrrrrrrgh! I will get the latest file and email you. Sorry.
