         oReg := TReg32():New(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Key)
         oReg:Set(Name,valore)

but here it not run because not found the variable into registry

what is the command to say " IF NOT FOUND THE name of variable create it " ?

I try with

IF ! FOUND (name)
oReg:Create( nKey, cRegKey )

but not run ok

then if insert oReg:ENd() it make error ...

What version of Windows ? Starting with Vista ( and now Win 7 ), Registry entries go to Roaming. Thus, they are not where I want them placed. I finally gave up on the Registry and use a file on the server for my data.

tim please see here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=20401&p=108171
on xp professional run ok
and try it and see on wich window it can run ok

I only have Win 7 on my computers now. However, I abandoned using the Registry with Vista, and now use a configuration file. It actually works out much better. For local machines, I use a text file, and on the server I use a dbf with a single record.

No matter what I tried, I was not getting Registry entries to go where I wanted them. Instead they went where Microsoft wanted to place them, and when I tried to read in the original location, of course they are not there. Do a Find in the Registry editor and see where they were placed.
