OK OK! You've proved me wrong IN THIS PARTICULAR EXAMPLE. The fact
remains that plenty other examples exist where MySQL could benefit from
the .NET Framework.
WILL MYSQL BE USING THE MICROSOFT .NET FRAMEWORK IN FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
OF THE WIN32 PORT?

Hi,
Apropos by VB or VB.NET
If you use WIN32 API(RegOpenKey,RegCreateKey,RegDeleteKey...etc)
functions
you can read and write in the registry wherever you wish.
